K1Max riser and print in place integrated lid hinge. The other risers available are fantastic but I wanted an easy solution to lift the lid up without having to buy additional hardware. I designed this so the lid can sit flush, cracked for cooling, or full open at just over 60 degrees for access to the top during filament changes etc. The riser lifts the current lid by 20mm.

Included additional holes on the hinges are there for future expansion/tray mounting.

Let the model(s) cool a bit before removing from the build-plate and, more importantly, separating the moving parts. I've kept the clearances tight so the first time splitting the hinge/stand will takes a little force to separate. I had to run a box cutter along the seams but once you've done this it will work like a charm.

Printed in PLA with good results but PETG would work too. What you sacrifice with PETG's impact resistance you gain in flexibility with PLA. Minimal support cleanup necessary with the only area that's a bit of a hassle around the lid clamps. Take special care removing the hinge clamp supports if done in PETG to prevent snapping it.

Minimal assembly - snap 5 pieces together and you're off to the races! I also added several clips to hold the corners of the frame in place when raising the lid.

Special Settings:

Detect thin walls

15% infill

Tree Supports with concentric support interface pattern for easier removal

Support critical regions only

I split the prints into 2 build plates, ~2 hrs and 5hrs, 37 min.

Let me know how it works for you...I'm always curious how other printers do with the tight moving clearances!
