The prompt
Create a fully 3D-printable circular hinged compact case. The case consists of: - Two identical circular rings, each with an 88 mm outer diameter. - Each ring must accept a removable circular bottom insert with an 80 mm diameter. - The inserts must snap securely into the rings but remain removable by hand. - Each insert is 2 mm thick. - Both rings are connected by an integrated mechanical hinge. - The hinge must allow the case to open and close freely. - Add a small notch to each ring to remove the inserts easily. - Design a simple snap-fit closure opposite the hinge. - No screws, no metal parts and no glue required for assembly. - Separate printable components. - Optimized for PLA FDM 3D printing. - Use realistic tolerances and avoid supports wherever possible. Generate the complete assembly and all individual STL files.
