Thank you all for your feedback.

Because of the confusion around this version, I took the time to remodel and improve the hinge design. Please check out the new updated version on my profile, as this older file may no longer reflect the intended final design.

Secret Book Storage – Hide in Plain Sight 📖✨

A clever “book” that blends right into your shelf while keeping small items out of sight. Drop it next to your paperbacks and it disappears—perfect for passports, spare keys, cash, notes, jewelry, or keepsakes.

Why it works 🕵️‍♂️

Looks like a plain hardcover from the outside

Clean, minimalist spine that doesn’t draw attention

Hinged lid for quick access; roomy interior for everyday valuables

What you get 📦

Two parts: Base and Lid (with hinge edge). Simple assembly—just glue the hinge side into the recess on the base, let it set, and it’s ready for the shelf.

Make it yours 🧰

Match your shelf: print in a neutral/brown tone or add a paper dust jacket for the perfect disguise

Optional: line the inside with felt/foam for a soft finish

Need a specific size? Uniformly scale the model to match the height of your books

Print tips 🖨️

Material: PLA recommended for crisp edges and easy finishing

Settings: ~0.2 mm layer height, 2–3 walls, 10–15% infill

Supports: Not required for standard orientations

Finish: Light sanding on the edges; a textured build plate gives a nice “book cover” look

Notes 🔐

This is a concealment item, not a security safe. For high-value items, use proper secure storage.

If you print it, drop a ❤️ and share a make—can’t wait to see yours on the shelf! 🙌
