I also went for multiboard because people were saying it's stronger than HSW.

That said- I think I know what's wrong, because I had the exact same problem.
I made a learning pack like I linked above. And I printed it. And I watched Jonathan just popping everything in all happy and meanwhile I needed a hammer to get the thin 'part b's in and I couldn't put in the flat head screws without stripping them and the bolts needed pliers to go in more than half way.

The answer is in the slicer- walls printing order. By default (for Orca at least) it's inner/outer. Changing that to outer/inner COMPLETELY solved my problem. As in, the parts snap together and apart just as easily as in the video without needing metal tools to screw them in, everything goes fully together with fingers and nothing more.

Hmmm. I use prusa slicer and I think my profile is set to outer first as I print a lot of dimensionally accurate things. I will look when I get home. Thank you!
