@@tyronelannister9922 wrong! you print the gasket in TPU! What are you talking about? I have vases around my house that are filled with water all the time that are made of PLA with no leak.
PLA and PETG suffer from creep while under tension so the latches stretch and get loose over time (speaking from experience with these boxes.) It's a good idea to print the latches from ABS or ASA or something else that doesn't creep. PLA is fine for the box itself though.
I’ve seen this everywhere recently! Cool mini review. Following! I was half expecting to hear the words “Prit Stick” at the end though! Also - I must get my textured bed (Prusa) working. Nothing stuck to it and I gave up too quickly!
I do a lot of 3D printing and there’s no way those hinges can hold the pressure necessary for water tightness. They would snap for sure especially printed in that orientation. HOWEVER you could use this to make a silicone mold and use far stronger materials that would have no problem
To be honest the design is pretty crap. Due to the print direction hing strength is completely dependent on layer adhesion. Which isn't great obviously.
If you use a silicone spray on the inside it will Though you'd be better off spraying both the inside *and* outside to avoid the plastic soaking up humidity
@@Vector3DP I have PLA handles for a gate that have lived outside for 3 years that look brand new. Southern sunshine and 95% humidity summers. PLA might be compostable in 100 years.
@@commiedog425 That was my point. Its not very compostable at all. Which is fine because I have used it in outdoor locations not subjected to high heat.
Nah the reason is because the design is cool and the design is sturdy hence "ruggedised". It will never be properly waterproof and people that need waterproof cases buy injection moulded plastic
That's not at all what it means it's derived from "rugged" that predates electricity as a human concept as far back as 1300-50 Middle English - that's when England conquered Scotland and a huge chunk of France.
You can add a gasket around the rim to keep moisture out.
PLA is porus
I dont think PLA can keep out sand particles of its layer lines, much less moisture unless you seal it with something elsd

@@tyronelannister9922 Calibrate your extruder! Gaps, poor layer adhesion. Poor wall to wall adhesion. Flimsy, fragile prints.
@@tyronelannister9922 honestly sounds like your printer and/or calibration and/or filament is shit

Printed a similar version. It has a TPU lid. Also great design!!!
Thank goodness you have a box to store your glue stick in now.
Printed it as a dice container, works great.
Only removed the fillet at the base for a cleaner print.
Hahahahha where would the glue be without this awesome rugged box!!!
Good print id want it bigger so id have to do the top and bottom separately so i could do so. Keep my knife collection

That is such a good printer
That's so great for your glue
Make one that looks like a halo med pack
Cute small box 😂
Nice 😊
How rugged is it? Any drop tests? Water tests?
the lack of those tests is telling

What screw dose you used ? Can I have the model of screws and where can I buy them online ? CHEERS
That looks like the invicta watch boxes
This is great for outdoor electronics prototypes.
where did you get that? the cite
what is the cost per box

Even with a gasket that won’t be water tight.
If you use a silicone spray on the inside it will
Though you'd be better off spraying both the inside *and* outside to avoid the plastic soaking up humidity
Unless you botched the print it will be.
Seal it with epoxy, tpu gasket, water proofed!
print a tpu gasket and itll be mostly water tight
Adding a gasket wouldn't do anything since FDM prints are porous
Fdm prints if done right will hold water. You just cant tune a printer. Change my mind
Link ?
Stl link?
Now, open it up 🤣
I hate when 3D prints have screws needed
Hey can I get the 3d files plzzz
Nice! Where could we get the stl file ?
Literally google the name lmao.
the website and the name of the box are right there in the video
Where is a alert for headphone users…
rip ears... squick squick dead...
75th
Look like a waterproof case to store your phone in and looks like it would float well
Now put a rubber grommet around the edge and poof it’s water proof
Somewhat, 3D printer PLA is porous
makes ruggedized box from brittle and compostable filament.. lol.
Yup 😂👌

Those snaps will degrade after a couple years and split. Pla doesn't like constant pressure.
Stl link men?
kkkkkkkk
Missing the oring sir, the only reason to print that is to have it be waterproof.
Maybe not the *only* reason…
Nah the reason is because the design is cool and the design is sturdy hence "ruggedised". It will never be properly waterproof and people that need waterproof cases buy injection moulded plastic
I thought ruggedized meant emp proof.
Ruggedised doesn't really mean much technically speaking.

People make useless items with printers. Someone print me a car!
You can buy those for 1 dollar
