About this 3D model

This is our Mechanical Heart Dice Box, a heart shaped gear box that locks and unlocks with a sword shaped key. Turn the key to open the box, reveal a TTRPG inspired candy heart message, then lift the insert to reveal the dice hidden underneath. Inside the heart is a removable dice tray with: Sections for a full dice setSide compartments for small minis or trinketsWe also included seven different heart overlays with nerdy candy heart style phrases (plus blank hearts so you can make your own messages). The overlays become the first thing the opener sees when the box opens and they also work great as coasters once the box is on the table. Best of all, the box itself prints support free as a print in place mechanism. Only the sword key needs light supports but a support-free version is also available! This model was originally part of our February Curations By Kira Patreon release.
