I am revisiting this in the face of the "GRIDPAC.one" release mentioned at:
and am re-drawing this in a very simple 2D tool:
with the intent to make it work only with T-locs (so no need for the metal locking clips) and able to be fabricated either in wood, or 3D printed, or a combination of these two methodologies.
Note that the interior grid matches "Gridfinity", a 3D printed organizational system developed by Alexandre Chappel and Zack Freedman.
The major impetus for me is that I need a box to store kitchen gear for the annual family beach vacation, and I hope to start using this sort of box for workshop organization. Thoughts and feedback would be welcome.

Modeling all done except for the lid, and the (optional) Gridfinity grid and verifying the position of the latch and catch and rotation of the former:
That will then leave isolating a pair of bottom corners so that they will print, working out the bottom, and resolving how to 3D print the material around the corners so as to arrive at a nice result.
At this time, for the bottom it looks like:
- 4 3D printed corners (including feet)
- 5 CNC cut pieces (front, back, 2 sides, bottom)
- 2 catches
- latch
- 4 (or 8?) 3D printed sections to wrap from the corners to the balance of the design
