That print looks really good. What printer do you have?

This is how I corrected it. The two spring loaded plungers on each side got upgraded to a stiffer spring. I tried stretching them first, but, made no difference. They actually went back to their original length. I then added the rubber bumpers. No more plastic on plastic violence when you close it. It worked out fantastic.

Ender 3. I printed with ABS highest quality
And used the first design provided by the member. The fancy one was breaking.

Well I mean I did write right in the readme:

"This version is probably not good to print at home on a normal FDM printer because the tabs will likely break off.
So this is really only for getting commercially printed using SLS or MJF."

The default version is designed for FDM.
