Heads up!
--------------------------------
Anyone changing the size of the lithphanes should be careful. If you make a lithophane of 100x100mm with 2mm border, then you need to change the parameters so the length of the litholength is set to 96mm. This is because the formula takes 96mm and adds 2 x lithophaneborder then adds 2 x tolerance. So overall it will be... 96mm + 2 x 2mm + 2 x 0.2mm = 100.4mm between the posts. If I see people struggling, I will try to change the formulate to something easier.
Update
--------------------------------
Releasing V4 updated filed. Some changes are a cosmetic changes. The changes where done to help hide the seam caused by the joining of the lid and base. The chamfered edges help smooth the transition and make the split look sort of a design feature.
I have also gotten rid of the tabs on top as some users have reported that they can break off. Instead of the tabs, pins will be used to join the top and bottom. This was also done as well so that if you want you could use magnets instead of the pins. The magnets are really strong and hold the lid in place nicely! The screws are just M5 bolts about 8mm long. Make sure they are magnetic. I believe I'm just using 8mm magnets
For the most part, all the previous settings will work.
I'll be slowly working on the description as I am pressed on time. Things will slowly phase out from the old design to the new design :
