Rugged tool box for bits

Made to accept various bits and parts from ratchet to screwdriver. Some generic and space for hex bits. Many spaces for ¼" sockets.

Additional hardware

  • 6x M4x25mm screws for the rugged box
  • Suitable glue to glue the inserts to the insides of the box.

Printing

  • Print box and latches with flat sides down (I used PLA+)
  • Print TPU gasket using slow speed.
  • Print TPU inserts. A soft TPU is preferable
  • Print screwdriver holder parts (I used PLA+)

Assembly

  • Assemble the box
  • Glue each insert to the box
  • Glue the screwdriver holder parts to the inserts

Example box

I've used this box close to a year now, and the TPU inserts have held up very well. No particular wear. The bits seldom loosens.
