pill_dispenser/README.md

A compact, parametric pillbox

A printable object for storing pills that can be parametrized to fit most round tablets.

I originally designed this between December 2019 and January 2020 to keep track of loose pills and to keep them intact.

Features:

• Variable amount of variable-sized compartments for individual pills.
• Spring detent for every compartment position.
• Optional built-in spliting aid.
• Optional attachment hole/keychain ring.

Instructions:

• Generating / using the model:
  • Option 1: The file itself contains an example that can be customized to suit your needs.
  • Option 2: The files modules can be used in other projects via use <…/pill_dispenser.scad>.
• Assembly: (As in the image) Insert the carrier into the shroud with the flat end forward and the compartments facing away from the slot.
