Here's a new curvy deck box! This one is called “sigma” and it hides a few interesting features under its simplicity.

Cards

This deck box fits 60, 80 or 100 single-sleeved standard 88 mm x 63 mm cards. This is the default format for Magic: the Gathering and Pokemon cards.

Printing instructions

Choose a size, print the “base” plate, then print the “lid” plate. Done!

• Suggested plate. The texture PEI plate gives top and bottom a nice finish.
• Suggested layer height. 0.16mm or lower to maximise the impact of curves.

Features

You'll notice some features on the inside of this deck box:

Vertical grooves on the side help you slide in the top correctly and prevent it from moving side-ways (given the ample space of the sigma curve).

A tiny flexible knob helps the lid snap in place once you close it and should prevent accidental opening. The clearance here is pretty tight and I like it this way - but if people find it to be too tight, I can release another version with a slightly relaxed clearance.

Finally, a chamfer on the lid should help guide your card sleeves without touching them.

Tolerances and clearances

• It is impossible to design for all filament types
• My models are designed and printed using Bambu Lab printers and Bambu Lab filaments
• If you use other filament types (different materials) or vendors (different brand), the result may differ. Before posting issues about tolerances / model tightness / loseness, please consider the filament you used for the print.
• Even with the same filament, results may vary (different settings, humidity, ventilation, etc…)

Common print troubleshooting

• Adhesion. Ensure you clean your print bed regularly with quality dish soap and water. Use of a releasing agent like Magigoo is advised. This advice is only applicable to PEI plates. Please consult your build plate manufacturer for detailed cleaning instructions! If you still have adhesion issues, try using a Super Tack or a BIQU cool plate; or add an extra brim to the model.
• Material. My prints are all PLA. Use other materials at your own risk. You will likely need to tune the printing profile.
• Temperature. Cold air and drafts can lower the quality of the print. Ensure your printer is located in an environment with stable temperature.
• Drying. Drying PLA is not a requirement, but be aware that over-drying can cause layer detachment.
