####Improved version of Parametric Rugged Storage Box
Remixed the design from @TheSameNameTwice by rverse engineering parametric 3D model in Fusion and improving weak points.
This model is still *parametric* but using fusion360 as original, no openscad version (sorry).
Put a ❤ if you like my design.
#####Instructions
Open the .f3d model in free version of Fusion360.
Main menu
--> Solid TAB
Go to second group.
- Press the "MODIFY" drop down menu
- Select "fx Change Parameters"
- Change: [hei, len, wid] following instructions
- Also Change: [lid/base height ratio] following instructions
#####Note: sometimes Fusion 360 has some problems when parameters are changed too much in a single iteration, if you want to go form 50 to 200, do 50mm or smaller steps.
Final:
Verify that model is rendered without problems.
--> Export .STL
#####1. Top cover improved closing latch:
The lever is now longer, to have a smoother closure and more durability.
#####2. Bottom box has three improvements:
- The hinge is supported by two parametric sturdy and smooth inserts coming from the bottom, increasing durability and avoiding breaking it during first assembly.
- Additionally I carved a V shape insert area to have a better hinge snap-in during assembly.
- Finally the front latching area is now improved a little because it was too thin in the original model.
Printed with tree supports to improve plastic structure but they may be not used.
