About this print
A round cylindrical container with a screw-threaded lid that allows the cap to be fastened and removed by hand. The dimensions of both body and lid can be configured before printing, making the box adaptable for storing small household items such as herbs, medicines or sewing accessories. PLA produces clean thread geometry and holds its shape well over time, making it a reliable choice for containers of this kind.

This is a round box with a lid, that can be screwed off.
The sizes can be customized.
### IMPORTANT NOTE
*Pay attention to the value of Durchmesser_Rand, or your thread may be cut off at the top!* - Durchmesser_Rand must be less than Breite_Dose + 2 * Wanddicke. Look at the pictures and check all values, when you customize!
The default values fit a can for salted peanuts.
You can make smaller ones for your medicine or longer and thinner ones for your toothbrush and toothpaste, medium-sized ones for herbs or flat ones for temporarily storing small parts, sewing-accessories like needles or buttons.
When you want to give it a thread with fewer turns to make it easier to handle, please note, that a minimum value of about 2.85 for thread_turns is required to have a complete turn holding the lid!

Corrected the functionality of cut_thread_percent and increased the default value for wackel to 0.5. I will test, whether this is sufficient.
Added pictures to visualize the effects of the geometry-parameters.
2016-07-07:
So many customized versions of this have a too short thread on the box (in comparison to the lid), because they leave the value for Durchmesser_Rand as it is.
2017-08-16:
* Fixed an error in the positioning which resulted in overlapping when the height of the lid was more than about half the height of the box.
* New parameter print_distance for printing-section, that lets the user decide, how distant lid and box shall be placed.
Formatting may have been simplified. These are the independent maker's instructions and fitment claims; Hark Tech has not independently verified them.
