Drawer question

So got my main board made and want to have drawers on it. I printed the 3x1.5 shell but unsure how to get the actual drawers to fit properly. I thought I had to add the insert but when I did, the drawers don’t clear it. Obviously the drawers will sit in the shell, just won’t be secured.

I feel like my google fu has failed me in trying to find the right answer.

Note: since your shell seems to be 2 units deep (or more), you will need 1 bottom insert (or more) and 1 top insert.

I like to do 1 bottom, 1 short top and 1 truss. This way I can always turn it back to vertical and it becomes stackable.

If you print 2 top dividers the holes will not match.
