Here is the same workflow

I watched it SEVERAL times before attempting this.

You could try making various shapes

After posting this I ran across a previous exploration of this theme that was quite extensive. Maybe I can find it again, it was impressive.

@glenntaekwondo

Did fusion 360 come up with the stagger

Do you mean the hinge cuts? I added those in inkscape.

Aha!

Another living hinge box

Last one for a few days, I swear! This one took an entire sheet of 1/8 inch PG maple ply. It’s held together with 16 Chicago screws (https://www.amazon.com/Copper-Chicago-Screws-Leather-Decoration/dp/B06XKGGDYY/ref=pd_rhf_gw_p_img_3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=DT40PJD1KBF989YCMS26). It’s about 5 1/2 inches square and 4 inches tall. Took about an hour overall to cut. [WP_20180107_003] [WP_20180107_002]

I have held the Bendbox in my hands. I couldn’t stop stroking its curves – it is SOOOOOOO sexy! (And I mean that in the most G-rated way possible; I just can’t think of a better word for how it DEMANDS to be touched!)
