.50 Beowulf, Double Snap Latch Modular Ammo Box

thingiverse

This is now an exclusive at .50 Beowulf, Double Snap Latch Modular Ammo Box. The Snap Latch snaps into a locked state when it is pressed towards the box front and it passes over a retaining tab. To open the box, pull the latch past the retaining tab and lift the box's lid. Look in my Ammo Boxes Collection https://www.printables.com/social/261776-brass_ring/collections/167118 to see my ammo boxes with different latches and hinges options. Other ammo boxes of this type can be found in my Double Snap Latch Ammo Boxes Collection https://www.printables.com/social/261776-brass_ring/collections/519398. This cartridge box is printed as separate parts that are printed in orientations chosen to maximize strength and then snapped together. The box halves require moderate infill (10%-20%) and can be printed with no supports, but I prefer to paint on supports under the flat sections on the hinge hoops, the latch hoops, and the latch catch. I printed with 0.16 layer height in PETG and PLA. Do not use Perimeter Generator: Arachne on the box bottoms.

Assembly instructions: 1) Snap the hinges into the box bottom's hinge hoop making sure that the hinge tabs are fully engaged and locked in place. 2) 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. 3) Push the tabs of the latches through the latch hoops on the box lid until the latch tabs fully lock in place.
