Design
When I remember school time always in my backpack I have pencils everywhere they move there freely. After when I need them most was broken and I need to sharp before use. As a designer, I use more pencils than a pen why there is space for eight pencils and one pen. This pencil case has two parts one cover where you need screw second part with holes for equipment and your box never open alone will just simply hold your equipment clear at your backpack.
Dimension of Pencil Box is 64mm x 64mm x 226mm

Sanding
Ok, for us just one day of print and we can start post-process our model, because we don't use support in this design there is not a lot to do. Maybe just little strings or small blobs. We grab our magical nails file and the little sand surface where needed. Like I write before there shouldn't be a lot of work.
Staining
When we finish sanding the model come time for staining. Of course, is optional, but will look very raw and depend on how dark was filament. We prefer to do staining on every our design to give it look real wood. We used a sponge to stain the box you can use the brush but it leaves marks on the model. We just apply a little on the sponge and start stain box is nothing hard. We apply just one layer and give us a nice result. We leave it for 24h to completely dry and now we can use a pencil case.
Fast Finish
Like you can see we don't spend a lot of time on post-process this model is easy and recommend for everyone who has 3D Printer. Our picture show how you can make good looking items on the printer without spending a lot of money.
