Carousel Box

My husband and I were watching a show called “The Repair Shop” on Netflix when we saw a magical musical carousel. It was fascinating! It turned out to be an antique smoker’s music box. A little research showed that these nifty dispensers were also used for lipstick. (Google “cigarette music box” for many examples) It looked like an excellent 3D printing challenge, so I bought a cheap one from Etsy. We disassembled it and recreated it using Tinkercad. Ours operates manually without the music box, but it’s still a pretty cool project.

We used the gears found here (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:185912) but sized them for our needs. Everything else was made from scratch.
