Protects joycons, particularly the joysticks. This variant locks together to keep joycon pairs together in a bag.

Video of the locking function: 

You can also slide them apart, but the layer lines make an unpleasant noise.

I have added sliding lids that have a soft detent on them to stop them from sliding off. These should help protect against dust and debris but it's not a perfect solution.

Printing Instructions

Protectors

Print one each of A and B, in vase mode. Print in downloaded orientation. Print using a 0.6 mm extrusion width, or joycons may not fit properly.

Lid

Print two in downloaded orientation, not in vase mode. Arachne perimeter generation is recommended for the thin walls.
