3D model description

This is my entry for #CHRISTMASXCULTS challenge.

I love riddles and that's why I wanted to put my wife a very special Christmas present under the tree this year. The present can only be unwrapped if she manages to open the Cryptex first. To open it, she has to solve a riddle that I have placed in the gift card.

There are no limits to your imagination when it comes to designing your very own riddle:

  • Make a crossword

  • Write a riddle poem

  • Hide a secret message with invisible ink

The cryptex has following properties:

  • programmable and spring loaded letter and number rings

  • no glue and no screws required (only printed parts)

  • no support and easy to print

  • 3MF file (already set for one or two color printing)

  • adjustable length for chain (no limit)

  • not possible to open without code

How to print endless chain:

  • Layer height: 0.2mm

  • General speed: 200mm/s

  • Outer wall speed: 60mm/s

  • Position on built plate: middle front

  • Print a single chain link and pause printer at layer 31

  • Put two chains into single chain link and continue printing

  • Caution: Avoid collision with extruder

Happy printing and merry christmas everyone :-)
