I think the top parts are oriented incorrectly. The original model's description states "If you print in the orientations provided supports will not be required for any of the parts." I assumed that applied for this dual extruder version as well and printed it as oriented, but the resulting print required a fair bit of cleanup of the bridged edge. Looking at it, I now see that the hinge side should be oriented on top so filament can progressively bridge across without needing supports.

Oh, yeah. It should be flipped to the other side.

Another side effect of printing this way is the latch catch doesn't print. Consequently, the hook has nothing to hook onto. I'm going to see if I can find a way to fix it, but I wanted to note that it's more than just the aesthetics of the box interior that are impacted.

Yes, it is not designed to be printed upside down. I'll update the file.
