I have a broken latch I would like to get made, but I do not have a 3D printer or capability to upload a 3D file.

What can I do? This seems the perfect answer to a discontinued part. On the attached photo I need the larger part, the smaller I found online just not big enough.

Help!

Thanks

I got scanning capabilities, I’d have to guess some dementions because we don’t have the whole complete part? It needs the bottom peice? Let me know, we can talk over the phone too sometime.

Part is simple and any CAD modeler should be able to rebuild this easily. What you want to do is provide precise measurements for each feature. If certain features of the latch aren’t as important to get accurate, then it will simplify the job of the modeler person. Also, you want to specify what material you want this printed.

I can have this part made for you in about 3 days. I just need the exact measurements and how you want to pay for it. Since I am not a graphic artist, I

Would put the job up for bid (Approx cost for file would be about $35) then I would be able to print it for you and mail it to you. Total cost would be about $70

with shipping included. Please let me know and i’ll get started on it.

Just need to sort out details. Payment where to send my parts for scanning.
