The file 'Safety Latch 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 57.0KB.
This is a safety latch designed to secure drawers, cupboard doors, or other furniture to prevent young children from opening them. Commercially there is a wide variety in the design of these latches, however, I've kept this design to it's simplest and most utilitarian form.
This should be printable on most reprap printers. If your printer can't handle the screw holes at the base of the latch then you could fill them solid and screw through the plastic when attaching the latch.
This is a work in progress so I welcome your feedback, improvement, and derivative designs.
This thing was made with Tinkercad.
