    Very nice realization but i can give you a tip for the build on Solidworks. You should always add fillet and chamfer done last to avoid construction problems. Best regards

    Thank you so much for the video. I used Freecad to make the part. It took some time but I finally figured it out. Well done and thank you for sharing.

    In the video you stated that you didn't think one could make a hinge with a rod through all of the lugs on the hinge. For the heck of it I tried it and it worked. It was a little stiff at first but quickly loosened up. It didn't work as smoothly as the way you designed your hinge but it was much easier to draw. Thank you again for the video.

    Thanks alot for this video and sharing your knowledge.i need some more input on this.how can we add more friction in hinge if i want design free stop hinges like hinges with position lock when release or not given support?.please help

      I made two versions of the part with the lugs, one was larger than the actual part, the larger one was used to do the subtraction

    Did you consider the gap/clearance of pins for about 0.2 mm?

  • @daviddjerf2856

    Have you done any strength testing on this hinge? I'm giving about buying a 3D printer to be able to create hinges and locks for some storage lockers, but I have no knowledge about how long it will last.

    • @conorwalsh_net
      @conorwalsh_net  Před 5 lety +1

      The hinges should be strong enough but I did this more as a proof of concept rather than for actual use. I'm not sure how long they will last under daily use. You might be better just buying metal hinges!
