Double washer to repair Pro-Ject turntable dust cover hinges

thingiverse

This is a double washer to fix issues with the hinge on the dust cover of Pro-Ject Debut line turntables. The issue is that when the hinge is too tight it will not open properly, and when it is too lose it will start to pull the hinge screws out of the plinth. The fix is to print this washer and insert it into the hinge. It allows you to tighten the hinge and keep it in place, while allowing the arm and attached dust cover to open and close freely. You then use the set screw to tighten the hinge much more easily. After months of frustration and adjustment with the hinge as it arrived, I printed this part in PLA for my Debut Pro and it fixed all of the issues I had.
