Box for King of Tokyo

Reusing the tea box and sizing it to 6.2 * 2.8 * 4.2

first try

the bottom layer is too weak

using OpenSCAD

So, its only playing with boolean operators around rounded boxes.

The core of it is the rounded box.

module roundedBox(length, width, height, radius) {
  dRadius = 2*radius;
  minkowski() {
    cube(size = [width-dRadius, length-dRadius, height]);
    cylinder(r = radius, h = 0.01);
  }
}

And the mesh is the same think with more volume.

// box
translate([radius, radius, 0]) {
  difference () {
    roundedBox(length, width, height, radius);
    translate([wallTickness, wallTickness, wallTickness]) {
      roundedBox(length-wallTickness*2, width-wallTickness*2, height, radius);
    }
  }
}

This one is great.
