This model was inspired by a print I made of the awesome [Pangolin](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2064359) by amaochan. I was impressed by my printer's ability to deal with the very tight tolerances involved in that model.
I began with a two-cube prototype with an in-print hinge assembly. That's when I discovered the very similar design by [austinvojta](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2595224). Going by his narrative, he approached the design in exactly the same way as I did - make the radii of the cube edges match the swing of the hinge. This not only makes an awesome mechanism, is has a pleasant aesthetic in the hand.
The two-cube version is ideal if you want to test the hinge mechanism without wasting a huge amount of time - it only takes an hour to print. You can download the prototype [here](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2718054).
Onto specifics: the cubes are 0.3mm apart, the hinges are also 0.3mm from the cubes and 'float' in the spaces allocated to them. This
