latch 3d print

[sinrealities]

taking a break from foamsmithing, got a bit burnt out. I decided its time to start adding the detail pieces to my torso. I want to 3d print some of the parts and am having trouble finding a latch.

This is the type of latch that im looking for.
As far as functionality goes, it does NOT need to hold the pieces together, just give the illusion that it is doing the job.
Hoping that someone here has the file or has any lead as to where to find it. I am trying to make as much of this suit as possible and dont want to buy anything that i can make myself.

Thanks in advance!

I googled "tension latch" and came up with some that might work for you.

Edit: looks like "Toggle Clamp Latch" is the proper name for them.

Edit 2: I just saw that you didn't want to buy them. My bad. There's nothing wrong with buying stuff for your suit though.

No worries. Nothing wrong with it at all. Just a choice I'm making.
