Comment on How stable is a metallic print

ForgotAboutDre@lemmy.world ⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

Hinges are often made of sheet metal.

This can be cut, drilled and bent to fit. A vice, a drill, a file, a hammer and hacksaw would be enough for most hinges.

If the door remains suspended with just one hinge a plastic one may work for a short while. The hinge only suspended half the load.

You can also print the hinge with a high infill percentage to improve strength and resist deformation.
