I drew up a replacement latch for my crafstman tool kit.
it is the full ratchet and wrench set box that comes with 3 drawers and a top compartment. this latch broke years ago and periodically i would lift my toolbox only for all the drawers to slide out; spilling my sockets everywhere >:(
The original part is made of some kind of blow molded abs like material, but I printed with PLA and it works great! the factory holes and tabs line up perfect. I needed to print the LEFT side latch, but I made a mirrored copy in case you need the right side latch. make sure you print the correct file ("L" or "R")
You will need to pry downward on the bottom plate of the box to get the PLA part in, as it does not flex like the original abs. I used a flathead screw driver and light-moderate force.
