Project box with sliding lid, 100 x 60 x 30 mm

A general purpose electronics box with a lid that slides in along dovetail grooves, avoiding screws and giving quick access to whatever is inside. The outer size is 100 x 60 x 30 mm with 2 mm walls, and the grooves are 1.2 mm wide with 0.2 mm clearance so the lid glides without rattling. A bump at the closed end gives a tactile click, and 3 mm corner standoffs take a PCB. Blank walls make it easy to specify a DC jack hole, a switch cut-out or a cable slot before printing. Open the ready-made model free, resize it on your phone or computer, then download a print-ready STL, 3MF or G-code sliced for your printer, free.
Opening the ready-made model and downloading it as STL or 3MF are free, no card; AI changes use credits, from Maker at $7.99 a month.No printer? We print this part and ship it to your door. See its priceUpdated

Example prompt

Create a project box 100x60x30 mm with 2 mm walls and a sliding dovetail lid, groove 1.2 mm with 0.2 mm clearance and a 0.3 mm click bump. Four corner standoffs with 2.5 mm holes. 8 mm DC jack hole on one side, 12x6 mm switch cut-out opposite.

This prompt comes with the ready-made model when you sign in, in case you want the AI to redesign it (3 credits a redesign); changing numbers in the viewer is free.

Fit notes

Boxes this size exist in stores, but they never have openings where you need them; SpeakCAD punches the exact holes you describe and sets standoffs on your board's pattern. Preview in the browser and change the lid direction, wall thickness or overall size in the chat.

A shared STL is modelled for someone else's measurements. Here you open the ready-made model free, change it to your measurements in the viewer, then download a file sized for the part you actually own, free as STL or 3MF.

Yes. SpeakCAD slices the part on its servers with OrcaSlicer and your printer's official profile (380+ printers, including Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality and Elegoo), and you download the G-code (a sliced .gcode.3mf for Bambu Lab printers). G-code sliced for your printer costs the same as the STL: included in every plan, free for a part you shaped by hand, 4 credits without a plan for a part with AI work in it. Pick your printer on the printers page to see its profile.

No. SpeakCAD runs in the browser on your phone or computer: the chat, the 3D engine and the live viewer load in the tab. The only file you download is the finished STL, 3MF or sliced G-code.
