Update March 1st 2024:  I made the box slightly smaller by including the space underneath the hinge in the inner volume. The box dimensions are 46mm x 22mm x 37mm (42mm with latch).

I recently bought new earplugs for band rehearsal and concerts. The enclosed container was of a very poor quality, so I decided to make my own.

It has a satisfyingly snapping lid and the entire thing prints in one go (print-in-place). The only place that require supports is the latch. No support is needed in or around the hinge on the back of the container.

It should be printed on the side (as it is in the 3mf file) to provide maximum strength for the latch.

Printing instructions:

  • Print at 0.20 layer height
  • PETG recommended for best latch bend properties
