/Tools/OraniserClipRepair.foocad

A repair for a component organiser's locking catch.

Glue the green yellow side to the outside of the box.

Likely points of failure :

The glue (therefore the yellow part is fairly large)
Where yellow meets orange. The green part adds strenth here.

No forces are across layer lines in the printed orientation.

Note, the yellow piece is slightly angled to match the angle of the organiser's front.
