Suggested fit for polymer sliding lid

Suggested fit for polymer sliding lid

Suggested fit for polymer sliding lid

(OP)
I'm looking for suggestions for where to start with a fit for a sliding nylon lid that fits over a nylon enclosure. The fit should be sufficient to withstand shaking, but still easy to pull apart by hand. This is for an early stage prototype, so I don't have specifics on material. The lid will slide perpendicular to the hole.

MrOliveDrab,

Do you know how to analyse interference fits?

I do not. Is there an efficient method within Autodesk Inventor 2013?
