Re: Door Latch

Since the SD3 didn't come with a door I'd love to see how you built one, and some more pics.

The .STL would be good too.

Re: Door Latch

Building door to SD3 is simple.
In Solidoodle 3 frame there is threaded holes in left side of front frame.
Those holes are for hinge (I found commersial from local hw store), Thingiverse thing 61978 might work also.
Door it self is 3mm thick 320x330mm acrylic sheet.

I post pictures as soon as I get everything printed and working.
Attached are current STL's, but there still might be some changes and design errors because I still didn't get everything printed and together.

Edit:
These work quite well, but some reason Slic3r make few layer support inside of handle.
That "extra" support cause latch and handle join to fragile so I need design these again ....
