Invisible Hinge for Ikea LACK Table

thingiverse

Hide Your Hinge! — with the all-new heavy-duty InvisiHinge;) Seriously tho: I was trying to create a hinge for the Ikea LACK table that - was clean looking (integrated in the leg standoffs) - raised the height of the enclosure by at least 15 cm - could handle a full-width 1/8 inch (3.175 mm) Plexiglas door After wasting way too much filament on different iterations I came up with this design. Sorry about the scientific vs freedom unit mess - I am a German living in the US. Specifications: - adds 8.15 cm to each leg (per hinge) - total inner enclosure height: 56.3 cm - maximum opening angle: 125° Requires flat head wood screws (Torx > Phillips) - 8 X 1 1/2″ screws (that's something like M4 x 40mm for normal people) - 8 X 1″ screws (M4 x 25mm) - 8 X 3/4″ screws (M4 x 20mm) - 7 X 1/2″ screws (M4 x 12mm?) and a long screw driver (> 10 cm, max 1 cm diameter). Requires drill bits: - for pilot holes: 1/8″-ish (2-3 mm) diameter (pre-drill all wood screws!) - for Plexiglas: Size-R (8.6 mm diameter) - sorry, I had this lying around from 10 mm taps Designed for 1/8 inch (3.175 mm) Plexiglas Walls: - 17.5″ X 22″ (445 mm x 558 mm) Doors (design should work with 3 or 4 legs, one or two doors per side): - 4-legged, half-width: 8.72" X 22" (220 mm x 558 mm) - 4-legged, full-width: 17.44" X 22" (443 mm x 558 mm) - 3-legged, full-width: 19.25" X 22" (489 mm x 558 mm) Some links to accessories I used: - 7 x 1/2 screws, white https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L1IP6DG - 8 X 3/4" screws, white https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079YRYQK1 - 8 X 1" screws https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079YWR4JK - 8 x 1-5/8" screws https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RL829Z1 - Drill Bit, Size-R https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A88IHJU - Car Door Edge Protector, white (wrap around edge of Plexiglas door) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BGSZ411
