    Door handle lock mechanism fastener broke

    It is more fun to design the part in fusion360 and print it all at once. But 3D filament is not for this application. Too much force on the handle when opening and closing the door or lock. Thanks for responding.

    I contacted ANDERSON this morning and we did a video conference and he looked at the door and issue. Even though it is out of warranty, they are sending me a set of these free of charge.

    OMG, i didn't take into account the way people could interpret what they see. The way you describe it and removing the offbase extraneous images will help me better describe the issue. There are two screws that hold the trim in place and the door handle together. One has broken off...
