This is my final version of my Eco Crate Desk.

It has been entirely created in 3DVIA Shape 3.0 but due to some mysterious technical problem I am unable to upload it as is from 3DVIA Shape. Indeed, since yesterday, I have been trying many alternatives and the only one that worked was to make a 3D Printscreen capture of the model and upload it. Therefore, I have not put the tag 3dviachallenge12 since 3DPrintScreen models are forbidden, but this should be the final verison of http://www.3dvia.com/FatherT3d/models/AA7F4DA0B28496A8

I have reworked the seat using freeform tools in order to make it more comfortable (I have yet to test it :)
I have also tried to figure out how to assemble and manufacture the whole crate with as few moving parts as possible (you can see cylinders acting as 'screws') while trying to keep at the same time a fully functional crate and desk.

This model represents the way the crate can be opened and filled-in.
