    Photo of Z18 Gen 5 lower door hinge needed

    Hi, I was able to buy a replacement latch for the door on my Replicator Z18 from McMASTER, but the lower hinge is now only a hole in the frame, and a hollow tube at the bottom of the door frame. Can someone please post a clear photo of the bottom hinge with the door both OPEN and CLOSED, so I can figure out how to repair this hinge? I REALLY want to get printing with this thing! Joe

    I fabricated a lower door hinge using a clevis pin and a nylon washer. The machine is back together now and working perfectly! Joe

    I replaced the user interface panel and fixed the door hings and that %^&*( micro switch in the frame that tells the machine the door is closed. What a piece if *** THAT thing is! Anyway, I am beginning to print, and loving it! Joe
