D&D Dice Storage Box (with lock)/带锁D&D骰子收纳盒

This box is a result of a rather unfortunate incident:

A neighbor’s child was curious about my D&D dice storage box and accidentally dropped it while picking it up.

When the box hit the ground, the lid flew open, causing the dice to scatter everywhere.

As a result, I unfortunately lost my four-sided die (I actually know where it is, but I don’t have the time to clean the corner where the die is hiding).

So I decided to create a box with a locking mechanism to store my dice. Unless the box is broken, the dice will never scatter.

Coincidentally, I had previously made several models of ancient Chinese locks. I considered using the locking mechanism of this model for my box.

In the end, I made this box.

Note:

Due to the strength required for the locking mechanism, the shell of the box cannot be printed vertically.

So I manually created a support structure with a gap of 0.2mm.

like this:

After printing, use needle-nose pliers to remove these supports as soon as possible.

I wanted to keep the part that holds the dice as simple as possible, but this also brought a small flaw:

If there are no dice in the box, it can be opened without a key.

Just slightly pull the box open and then lift it up, and the whole box can be pulled out.

There is no problem once the dice are in the box.

Finally:

The dice in this box are designed according to the size of my own dice.

You can use the scaling function to match the dice you have.

In the comments of the Book-Shaped D&D Dice case, @KingCaramon provided the scaling ratio.

But please note: overall scaling will change the gap between the supports and the top and bottom surfaces.

You may need to rescale the supports in the Z-axis direction to ensure the gap.
