Storage box for Nintendo Switch cartridge – fixing mechanism test

Before creating the storage cube for 12 cartridges (*), I printed out this simple box to check the dimensions and the mechanism for fixing the cartridge. It doesn’t close and doesn’t combine with any other element. It only ensures that the cartridge fits in and out perfectly, without forcing, smoothly, safely. By pressing on the edge of the cartridge instead of the top, you use the shock absorber of the box. You do not hear any click and the cartridge is perfectly held. You will take it out by pressing the same way, on the edge.

If you succeed in this impression, the cube for 12 cartridges is waiting for you.
