This is a caliber specific, snap together cartridge box. The cartridge box is assembled from separate parts that are printed in orientations chosen to maximize strength and then snapped together. This is a sturdier version of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5270385 or https://www.printables.com/model/187176-modular-ammo-box that is intended to better handle larger and heavier cartridges in high counts.

Assembly instructions:

Snap the hinges into the box bottom's hinge hoop making sure that the hinge tabs are fully engaged and locked in place.

Flip the hinge tabs to the up position and place the box lid over the box bottom with the hinge hoops over the hinge tabs, press the box halves together until the hinge tabs fully snap into the hinge hoops and lock in place.

Rotate the latches over the latch fixtures on the box lid until the latches snap flush against the front of the box lid.

10% Gyroid

The Flex Latch must be printed in a flexible material - like PETG. Sometimes PLA will work, but I'm finding it rare.
