This is just a pill box with markings for every day of week. I know there are thoundsand cheap ones available in drug stores ... but you know that... printing is better than buying. The idea was to have a spring loaded button to enable the selection of a new compartment. To make use of printed parts only I decided to use a planar spiral spring. Third version of it had enough force to hold the button.

One thing should be mentioned for the assembly: Put the spring with the flat side down on pin off the lower part!

Stay healthy!

Edit: I think I didn't made it crystal clear. → Please consider a filament change with high contrast below the letters in the main part to maximize visibility. I used PLA black and white and two layers below in white worked very well. Please be careful when selecting the right position of the color changes in your slicer.

All parts were printed in PLA... doesn't matter... except the spring. The cup spring should be printed in PETG. Make sure to setup the filament change on the right layers... I know what I'm talking about.
