Large Latched Box

thingiverse

I present yet another printed box! This one is nice because it prints reliably and is strong and large. It doesn't use printed hinges because I wanted the lid & body to be individually replaceable in case on half fails. Metal hinges such as the nails I use also make the joints much stronger and much more reliable to print, preventing an 8 hour print from failing just because a print setting was off. I have found lever C to work best as a latch, but B may work better for you if you want a looser fit. I designed this box specifically for electronic components storage. It's sized so that a bag from Mouser Electronics will fit snugly, thus allowing you to store components in their original ESD packages. For loose components or anything else that's small I have found 3x4" plastic bags (readily available on Amazon) to work well for managing them.
