Remix and customize your own on Tinkercad: https://www.tinkercad.com/things/fCvSyjzVtij-peacock-trinket-box
A friend wanted a small peacock themed box, so I searched Yeggi, found a cute peacock feather keychain by Make It 3D Printing, and showed my friend how easy it was to make something like this in Tinkercad. Took about an hour to model. Then it took 3 prints to fine tune the design. But that's okay, because they wanted 4 of them, so only the one biggest failure went to waste.

This box uses the new PrintABlok slip connector as a latch. You can find out more about this on my October patreon update.

Print one of each of the included STLs. Attach the top hinge by stringing a loose piece of 1.75mm filament through the holes. Then put the slip connector into the printablok hole in either the top or the bottom. I like putting the flat end of the connector into the base part, then closing the lid on the top to get the connector into place.
