Latch (restrained hinge; no assembly required)
myminifactory
Simple latch to secure cabinet doors in place DO NOT ACTIVATE SUPPORTS IF NOT USING CUSTOM SUPPORTS! Support material will be trapped inside the hinge, rendering it immovable! In Simplify3D, custom support pillars can only be placed on the sides! I experimented with designing a hinge that pivots 180° and functions seamlessly out of the printer. My previous designs featuring movable parts all required assembly and hardware, but I aimed to create this one as sleek as possible. I've observed similar designs like http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:190118 and http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:330151 that print without assembly, inspiring me to craft a design with the same capabilities - yet limited to 180° motion. After printing, carefully remove it from the print bed, gently tap it on a hard surface, and then give it a smooth twist, which will release the hinge.
