Sobre este modelo
I had to come up with a very fine hinge for a restored ornate sewing box for my mother. This is my first try at dual material extrusion - PLA and TPU. At first I had made it in 100% TPU but after a while the tiny screw heads pulled through the elastic TPU. Then I had the idea to use a rigid material for the screw-plates and the TPU for the live hinge. I looked up Google AI and it said PLA and TPU were quite compatible. So I redesigned the hinge with a stl for the centre TPU and included a V-down its centre to fold, and then used the same hinge as TPU for the screw plates each side. It took 2 days to come up with good settings that worked on the FlashForge Creator 2, but persistency paid off and I have a great hinge that is small and fine and doesn't show unless the box is opened.
