SMD Magazine Remix

This my take on the SMD Component Magazine.

This version features

• DIN-Rail mount with printed flexure
• Press-fit lid to prevent accidents, can optionally be secured with a screw
• Easy one handed operation by pulling the protective foil backwards
• Two flat spots perfect for labeling (templates included!)
• Parametric source files for easy editing

Hardware

The lid can optionally be secured with an M3x4mm heat-set insert and 5+mm M3 screw.
It isn't required, however, as the lid by itself is already quite snug.

Print settings

I printed mine with 2 walls at 10% Infill and 3 top/bottom layers; 0.28mm layer height and 0.5mm line width.

The design uses 0.1mm tolerances for the press fit, so if your printer can't achieve those I suggest editing the Fusion360 design and increasing tolerance_loose (for the tape) and tolerance_tight (for the lid).

I recommend using ironing or a quick pass with sandpaper to take off any spiky bits, though it also works alright without this.

Make sure to place your Z-seams so they don't rub on the tape, check that the Z-seam on the body and lid are in different spots, and also reinforce the flexure with some additional walls.

Suggested placement:

The model was remade from scratch, combining the improvements from the source models.

The only original feature is the press-fit lid.
