Hinged Box Generator

Need a hinged box in your own dimensions instead of whatever you can find pre-made? Design one with the hinge built right in — no screws, no glue, nothing to assemble. It prints in one piece, ready to open and close like a book.

01 Dimensions

Widthouter, mm — X axis, hinge runs along this edge

Depthouter, mm — Y axis

Base heightmm — tray wall height

Lid heightmm — lid wall height, caps over the base

Corner radiusmm — rounds all four corners; back corners cap out before reaching the hinge

02 Hinge

Knuckle countsegments, alternating base/lid — forced odd

Knuckle diametermm — barrel outer size, the bar scales with it

Clearancemm — gap around the bar, and barrel stand-off from the back face

Segment gapmm — axial gap between neighbouring knuckles

Arm angle° from vertical — 45 keeps the brace self-supporting

Hinge span% of width, centered

03 Dividers

Width dividerscount — walls splitting the interior across the width, in both base and lid

Depth dividerscount — walls splitting the interior across the depth, in both base and lid

Divider thicknessmm

04 Print settings

Wall thicknessmm — sides of the base and lid

Floor / ceilingmm — base floor and lid ceiling

05 Lid text

Textoptional — engraved into the lid's outer top face, centered

Modeindent = recess only; fill = recess plus a matching insert, a third color in the 3MF

Text sizemm — font-size; cap height renders somewhat smaller

Text depthmm — how far the recess cuts into the ceiling

06 Stacking

Stackableadds a rim on the lid's top that registers into a matching recess in the base below it

Rim heightmm — how far the rim stands proud / the recess is deep

Stack clearancemm — gap around the rim so it drops in without binding
