Hinge Replacement

thingiverse

We have a SimpleHuman trash can in our kitchen that's been around for a while now. Over time, the plastic hinges on the lid have started to deform and wear out, causing it to no longer stay shut properly. The pins on the bin itself are still in great condition, so this fix is essentially a replacement for just half of the hinge - the part that holds the lid in place. I managed to print two new replacements and secure them firmly onto the lid using some strong adhesive.
