Scaling larger or smaller may cause issues with printing hinges depending on printer accuracy and filament type. Width ----- You can upscale in the X axis to the full width of your print bed, but you must scale the Z axis by the same amount to keep hinges circular. Height ----- Do not scale height without adjusting the X axis. If a different height is needed, the bottom face of the hasp (catch) should be extruded downwards instead of using support. Printing ==== The boxes have a large area in contact with the print bed, which can cause lifting and warping. Ensure a good coat of adhesive on the print bed and use a heated bed if possible. Hinge pins have 0.5mm tolerance. Printing in PLA may cause hinges to stick, but they can be freed easily with gentle force. Hinges print well in PETG or ABS. The box is designed without support. Do not use support as it may clog the hinges. A layer height of 0.25mm is recommended. The catch is secure and designed to prevent accidental opening. You may need to adjust the catch with a file or sandpaper if it is too tight.
