IKEA EFFEKTIV replacement handle

thingiverse

The popular EFFEKTIV line of modular office furniture from IKEA gained a lot of attention before being discontinued in 2012. An old EFFEKTIV cabinet is now serving as outdoor storage and the recessed metal handles are taking a pounding due to exposure to the elements, with paint chipping off and rust forming. I decided to replace both of them. I created a replacement handle for the EFFEKTIV in Fusion 360 that closely resembles the original part. The M4 thread holes were initially modeled but did not turn out printable at our resolution (0.15 layer height using an 0.4 nozzle). In this version, I used self-tapping screws instead of the original bolts to secure the handles in place.
