SnapLock V3 - Single latch
Print Profile(2)
Description
It took way longer than expected but here is the one latch version of my Snaplock V3 boxes. This allows to have even smaller boxes to store small items.
Customizable size
The model is fully customizable using four parameters: inside width, inside length, height, and corner radius. I also added a groove designed to accept an optional TPU gasket for improved sealing.
When you export the model from the “customize” tab, it will appear as a fully assembled box. In the slicer, you can right clic and “split to objects" as shown :
Then you can print the resulting parts like this :
(the TPU gasket is optional)
My favourite material for the latches is PETG but it works as well in PLA.
Assembly
The assembly is fairly straightforward, simply follow the GIF. One important detail to note is that a groove is designed to define the correct orientation for assembling the hinges and latches. This groove guides the parts into their proper position, and once installed, the assembly should be secure and hold up very well.
Fusion 360 file

A window will pop up where you can download the file.
