A countertop bread box straight off a bakery shelf: slanted drop-front door filled with reeded 'glass' printed in transparent PETG, a golden baguette handle standing off the door on a slim neck, a striped bakery awning with a scalloped edge over the door — two-tone on a multi-colour (AMS) printer, or swap it for a plain wavy valance — and chamfered little feet. The body prints in one supports-free piece; the door hooks onto printed pivot pins — no hardware anywhere — opens to a friendly 50 degrees and lifts out for cleaning. A hidden gutter catches crumbs at the sill and vent slots in the back keep the crust crisp. Fits loaves up to about 20 cm wide on the default size.
Outside width of the box. Up to 250 mm (the printer bed) it prints as one piece; wider boxes build automatically as two glued halves with the full striped roof, up to 500 mm — twice the bed.
How deep the box is, front to back, at the base — the front leans back 12 degrees, so the top is about 30 mm shallower.
Outside height including the feet. The interior floor sits 12 mm up, between the arched foot cutouts.
What hangs across the top front edge on boxes up to 250 mm wide. Awning: a shallow striped bakery awning that projects over the door, its front edge scalloped one lobe per stripe — the stripes alternate the box colour and the awning colour on an AMS printer (single colour in the STL). Or a flat curtain-pelmet valance: soft waves, drooping circular scallops with little points, or a plain straight fascia. Boxes wider than 250 mm always wear the full striped roof, which also hides the assembly seam.
The French storefront trim that covers the door's centre seam on boxes wider than 250 mm (printed separately in the box colour, glued over the joint, with the baguette knob resting on top). Pilaster: a fluted pilaster with plinth and stepped capital. Column: a turned half-column with bead rings and a barrel swell. Panel: a quiet framed stile with a recessed field and a lozenge. Boxes up to 250 mm print in one piece and ignore this.
The PETG pane: fluted lays vertical half-round ribs like reeded glass (bread shows as soft silhouettes), clear is a plain smooth pane.
Six discreet ventilation slots high on the back wall, so the crust stays crisp instead of sweating.
Pane clearance in the rebate and how firmly the door clicks shut. Start with standard; go snug if your printer runs tight and the click feels weak, loose if the door is hard to snap closed or pop open.
