Latch for Side Cutters

Whenever I leave side cutters on my desk, I'm afraid they'll go after my USB cables when I'm not looking.  Not anymore!

With my Xuron 170-II cutters, I can close the latch with a flick of the wrist.  It still functions on my noname cutters, but not as well.  You can "Modify > Change Parameters" in Fusion 360 if the tolerance is off.

Printed in PLA with 100% infill, no supports.

2024-02-28: updated to v2, which is more compact and locks in the open position so you can actually use the cutters without the latch getting in the way.
