Hollow Barrel Hinge

thingiverse

This is a versatile barrel hinge. Two versions are included with the purchase. The first uses a precise dimple method to secure the hinge. The second version provides an access hole, allowing a shaft to be inserted through it. When printing the top piece, it's recommended to print it on its side with supports in place. This will minimize the risk of the arms breaking off between stacked printing layers. Instead, the printed layer will remain continuous from the base to the tip of each arm. A small metal tip was attached to each end of the hinge, as shown in one of the accompanying photos. For a modified version of this project, please visit https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2921466
