Summary

The hinge caps for the PC Specialist Optimus VI laptop break off very easily and are not robust, especially if carried inside a bag like I have found.

These caps replace the caps and a push-fit on the nut and washer inside the hinges area.

How I Designed This

Design

            <div><p>The hinge caps for the PC Specialist Optimus VI laptop break off very easily and are not robust. Can be made from PLA or even flexible material for bump-protection. </p><p>Designed using Fusion 360, measuring old broken end caps and filling in the space so the cap is retained on the nut inside the laptop hinge. </p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/90/ab/8e/2e/22/Capture.PNG"></p>            <p class="detail-caption"><strong>Underside - Note cutouts to avoid old clipping points on the laptop case, and the central bore for fitting over the hinge nut. </strong></p>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/b5/9f/a2/cc/f0/Capture2.PNG"></p>
