9mm hinged ammo box

thingiverse

50 round 9mm hinged ammo box. To connect the top to the bottom, just press down firmly until the pieces lock together. I suggest doing this before loading any ammo into the bottom, since it can tilt and block the lid from latching together. This step is temperamental and, although I've verified multiple times that it works, I have had a break happen here when the print had a notable layer shift which weakened the hinge. Damage is a rare, but real possibility. For the exact size, I had inconsistent results using different spools of PLA, so this scale was intended to be a comfortable middle ground. Depending on your exact material and print settings, it might be either too tight, or not tight enough. If the size isn't what you want, I'd recommend sticking to a scale of 98% to 103%, as those fit snuggly for every print I tried. 15% infill is sufficient for this. For the front latch on the top section, I recommend setting the infill of just that area to 100% to make it more durable, although it will work without that; it just won't stand up to much abuse.
