Artemide Tolomeo Replacement Hinge (+ models for metal casting)

thingiverse

Designed by Michele De Lucchi in 1987, the Tolomeo is one of my favourite lamp designs. Sadly one of the Tolomeo's in our offices recently had a minor accident and one of it's hinges broke. I though it would be fun to recreate the part in Fusion360 and repair it. Since I teach a metal casting class on the side, I made lemonade from life's lemons and turned the print into a casting mold, so fellow casters can create their own replacements :) There are 4 files: "Complete" are 1:1 replacements for the part that can be printed or sintered and used to replace the part directly, while the "casting" parts need to be printed (twice, once mirrored) then cast and post processed (drilling, sanding, polishing, etc). detailed steps for the cast will follow :)
