Description

This is a high strength box that can withstand many things including dust, crushing, dropping, and more.
It is printed in place (as one piece in one print) and uses very little and easy to remove support.
This box is water Resistant and not water Proof (Small amounts of water can leak into the compartment if submerged for long periods of time.

You could use this for camping adventures, hiking, airsoft, paintball, and much more, and your items will be secure and safe.
Stores batteries quite nicely, could be used for extra batteries for devices, including RC cars, drones, and other devices.

Note that the latch is stiff, it is like this for a reason so that it does not pop open during rigorous endeavors.

This containers internal dimensions (Storage capacity) is 130mm x 60mm x 25mm (LxWxH). And external dimensions (Total area of space the box takes up) of 140mm x 90mm x 45mm (LxWxH).

ATTENTION people of Makerworld, it has come to my attention that this model is very similar to another's.

Though this model is not based on YogiTech's Model, there are many distinctive similarities.

As these are highly similar i see it fair to share YogiTech's model.

Go check YogiTech's model out, it seems to be of good quality!

Very good print in PLA+ but once closed very difficult to open, resulting in the locking pin being bent, a shame because it is a very good box

I see, you may be able to heat and bend the locking bar to put it back in place, you could also use a nail file or sandpaper or something similar to grind down the latch to get it to close and open better. If you run into any further problems, let me know and I will do my best to resolve them.

Replying to @Hester3D :

Well, I finally used a soldering iron to reinforce the rod and straighten it, it works much better now. I noticed that the difficulty in opening the box came from the fact that the latch edge was not angled enough to have a good grip with the fingers, perhaps you could modify the angle for future models? Meanwhile, the box is functional, thank you again.

Modifications will definitely be implicated. I am glad to hear that you got it working. thank you for the feedback.

This is great. It works very well after a while of running. The latch is strong, it is worth beating it so that it does not move too hard.

how did you get that design? looks good

@Norkius

Replying to @soulkill_savage :

Hello! I bought a "Rainbow confetti PEF" sheet from Amazon, there are a lot of different designs there, as well as AliExpress, and Bambu has some also but they come as stickers from Bambu that you have to apply to a plate yourself, those are called 3d effect sheets. The Amazon plate came preassembled but it was a bit tricky to use, it has to be extremely clean, set as smooth pei in slicer, and I found 55 to 60 C works the best for me. Hope that helps!

@Anomaly7

I’d love to see this as an ammo box.

The designer has replied

@Hester3D

Good idea! I will see If I can make this a reality. What caliber tho?

@Tav3n

Replying to @Hester3D :

9mm is the most common .38 & .45 are probably next My votes are for 9mm & 7.62x39

@mrawson0928

22lr 9mm 10mm 7.62x39 5.56 I would be printing too many of these 😎

Scaled it up a bit. Would love a gasket to make waterproof.

i just printed the box and it is awesome! but i can see one flaw and it just might be me? The area where the latch closes prints in horizonal strings and i can already see some of the strings coming off the latching area. i used PETG to print the box if you were wondering. Should i use some plastic glue on this area as a binder to keep this from happening? Or is there a way to print in a different pattern or direction?

The designer has replied

@Hester3D

using supports usually helps bind the plastic together and help fix this, though I've used these boxes for a while now and usually the pieces just detach and aren't a problem.

Very good but to open it, it's shut tight. Can't take it off without using a butter knife or a tool to pry it off. Maybe the creator can fix this by modifying it to be like this, as shown on my picture. Don't have opening problems now but i hope it get fixed so others don't have the same issue as I had. First pic: plate. Second pic: opening lid damage. Third pic: Solution by flattening and cutting off excess.
