A locking box with slightly larger holes and longer arms so the locking mechanism slots into place more readily.

Description

PDF

You will need the following files from the original model:

  • Cap.stl
  • GuideSpring.stl
  • CapClose.stl

Assembly instructions are exactly the same as the original. I recommend supports on the box body (regular supports in the slot). Note that because the arms are longer, you'll have to fit the lid on one side at a time (like slotting a battery into place).

If you want to edit the SCAD files, you'll need the other three models from the original model as well.

Model origin

The author remixed this model.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

  • Widened the slot in the main box body
  • Lengthened the arms so they stick a little further into the wall
  • Lengthened the toggle on LockRight so it sticks up and out of the cap
  • Reoriented LockRight so it's printable as oriented
