Description

I liked a lof the original model, good size, robust, very good fitting between the lid and the box, bulky. However, I had a feeling it could be printed faster. So, I decided to change the pattern on the lid and the bottom of box to avoid slow printing 90 degrees corners. I replaced the original grid with a curved pattern. I added several longitudinal curves and also 2 transversal ones to add a little stability and stiffness. The result showed less improvement than I wanted, to be honest. My print time for the combo (lid + box) came from 1h41m to 1h27m, less than 15% improvement. In case you are going to print a dozen it may be worth. I could also increase the gap between the fins, but I don't want to take risks here. My printing settings are: First layer heigh 0.20 mm, additional layers height 0.28 mm. Layer width 0.6 mm (grid fins are optimize for this setings with 1.2 mm),
