## UPDATE
Version 2 - January 3rd, 2024
Added user editable parameter to increase the thickness which holds in the bolt. Increasing this value should be a simple way to improve the strength of your hinges. This is not completely tested, so let me know if you run into problems. Thanks to user @tehgrn for requesting this change.
## Waterproof Rugged Box
This is not "yet another" rugged case. This is a truly parameterized version in OpenSCAD compatible with the Thingiverse Customizer. The design requires minimal external parts (either M3x25mm or 4-40x1in. bolts) to create a truly waterproof box. The switch to OpenSCAD makes it much more accessible to remixes, as the design will import directly to other programs like FreeCAD.
## The Gasket
Rather than require a printed gasket, I designed this for compatibility with 2.85mm filament. For all of the examples I show here, I used blue flex TPU (3D Universe TPU 2.85MM BLUE) to seal the enclosure. You can print a gasket
