##### Introduction
An updated version featuring a exponentially more secure latch, mainstream design and and more rigidity. This model isn't parametric but I have linked the Fusion file. I've tested the model and the only problem isn't the seal, it's the plastic not being totally sealed. It slowly lets water seep into it. So if the box is dropped in the water. you have lots of time to retrieve it but it won't float forever.
Size: 162 wide x 105 deep (including latch) x 42 tall (mm)
##### Slicer Settings
Most importantly, if you want the best chance at sealing out the water, I suggest making the walls solid to prevent water from seeping in through the plastic.
##### Assembly
Use normal 1.75mm PLA for the hinges and the latches. Glue in the grips, and just slide in the seal, no glue needed for the seal.
