Description
Shortened latches to use when you printed a Frog Box 2.0 with the minimum height of 16mm for the lower part.
I scaled the Frog Box down to H(box) 16mm and H(lid) 16mm in Fusion 360. So it is at the minimum height like stated in the description. The latches however, stick out about 18mm of the bottom of the box. The box can't be placed flat on a surface anymore, so i went looking for different latches.
I used the design of these latches and changed them a bit:

(Sorry, i can't get this added to the source files, thing not found?)
Using either Type A or Type B enables you to set the box flat on a table. It takes a little bit more force to open and close them, but it still works.
I like Type B better, because it is easier to apply a force in the right direction to open the latch.
Special thanks to the makers of the original boxes and latches.
