Flambeau Tuff Tainer Case Latch

thingiverse

This is a latch designed specifically for securing the lid of a Flambeau Tuff Tainer parts holder. The original container I have measures approximately 10 3/4" x 7" x 1 3/4" (275 mm x 175 mm x 45 mm). This latch may also work on other older Flambeau cases, as it was created with a universal design in mind. The part was meticulously designed using Microsoft 3D Builder software. I printed the part on its edge without any support or raft, but you may want to consider adding one of these features due to the narrow width of the latch. In my experience, printing two pieces at once resulted in one piece detaching from the build plate towards the end. The fit is snug, so you might need to use a small file to widen the groove on the latch for a secure seal.
