Microwave door lock part

thingiverse

I initially attempted to reattach the shattered fragments of the original component, as evident in the accompanying image. After it broke again, I decided to redesign the part and print a new one, hoping that it would prove more durable. Since there was no feasible way for me to align the fibers of the print to achieve optimal strength throughout the entire part, I printed it in two sections and bonded them together, as visible in the image. You're free to experiment with different printing orientations if you prefer. I acknowledge this solution is likely specific to this particular microwave oven model and won't be compatible with other models on the market.
