Latched Small Parts Box with Snap Hinge Lid (No hardware!!)

thingiverse

This is a compact small parts box with a snap hinge. It's a variation of another box I designed that doesn't require any hardware or tools for assembly (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3429552). This design is perfect for organizing and storing small pieces like screws, nuts, resistors, etc. The lid lies flush against the base, so it can be jostled or turned upside down without spilling anything, while the latch keeps the lid closed. The thumb pads on the lids and base on the front side of the box make it easier to open and close. To attach the lid to the base, carefully press the "pegs" on the lid into the hinges on the base (see screenshot). The "pegs" on the lid will be "bridged" during printing, so the bottoms might droop a little and be a bit misshapen. If the lid doesn't pivot smoothly in the hinge, remove the lid and use a hobby knife or something similar to remove a small amount of plastic from the underside of the "pegs" on the lid. This should allow the lid to pivot more smoothly. This was my second attempt at using Fusion 360 to design something functional. I would appreciate kind but constructive comments and recommendations on how to improve the design. Although this isn't a remake, I was inspired by zx82net's Small Parts Storage Box (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3384017). I was also inspired by bnimon's Screw and Bolt Box, hinged with snap lid (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3428662) to create a version of my original box with a snap hinge. UPDATE 3/1/2019 Based on sllimj's suggestion in the comments, I've included three additional configurations of the base with different numbers and sizes of compartments. The original contained 12 small compartments, but I'm also including files for: 1) 4 small and 4 medium compartments 2) 6 medium compartments 3) 3 large compartments Someone much smarter than me probably knows how to make this a customizable object where the user can pick the number and/or configuration of the compartments. If anyone has any thoughts or wants to collaborate on this, let me know.
