    PowerBook 540c hinge restoration: SUCCESS!!!

    IF I Print this hinge fix replacement with ABS and bond it to the power book cover with acetone, then do you think I could reduce the size of the “hinge fix”part? I am wondering if it will require a lot less surface area to securely meld ABS to ABS????
