This OpenSCAD script will generate a 2 part fit together packaging which connect together using simple lips.
One of the objects will have an internal lip the other one will have an external lip. The ridges left by 3d printing provide grooves which acts as teeth to secure the 2 halves.
It can also create simple square or cylindrical cutouts on any face of the top or bottom half
4 cylindrical support posts can also be added on the bottom or top half to help position a PCB or similar device
You can specify fit and tolerances
All these features can be turned on/off from the control variables section

With this script you can easily make packaging for almost any electronic device you are working on!
