This remix of the or...iginal Twist Lock Trick Box (Triangle) features two new toppers and an alternate base inspired by the Legend of Zelda series!
For the Triforce topper, BotW topper, and lids shown here, I changed filament colors in middle of the print. The filament change in the lid isn’t very obvious, but it creates a nice horizontal band of color that disguises the latches.
All the remaining parts are available in the parent project.

Switching out your filament color while printing the toppers is recommended to help the design stand out without painting.
The Master Sword topper must be printed with supports.
Assembly
Assembly is the same as the original Twist Lock Trick Box. Watch this video for the complete process.
Make sure to pre-tension the spring by one gear tooth
This will assure that the latches have a strong hold on the base. This is also necessary for the alignment of some toppers.
Make sure to glue the spring and topper
If you do not fully secure these parts, the mechanism may become detached while in a locked state. I recommend using either super glue or 3D Gloop!, but hot glue can work as well.
