Hinge MOD

Post by Tophool » Wed Jun 05, 2019 6:12 pm

I got sick of the hinge constantly coming off the hinge support, so I modded it a bit to be held in place by one of the small screws provided in the kit and a 3D printed cap. I had to file a small amount off the screen bezel to accomodate the sliver of screwhead protruding from it, but that was easier than redesigning and reprinting the screen faceplate ;)

I was having trouble with my hinge falling off as well. This was the pefect mod. I didn't use the washer and had to do some trimming, but it works great!
