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.

This is great. Thanks for the recipe.
