It’s a sh.itjust.works link to lemmy.world on lemmy.world because the Fediverse isn’t viable but I tried which is more than you can say for most humans.
I’m in a severely pissy mood because of European cup hinges and the ocean of incompetence surrounding them I’m supposed to just be okay with. It’s pissed me off enough that I might just get promoted to Major Aggravated.
You’ll see them called Euro hinges, concealed hinges or cup hinges. They come in a myriad of variations and several syncopations depending on the characteristics of the cabinet and how the door relates to it, but they all work in such a way that the mechanism has to fold partially into the volume of the door itself. The part that attaches to the door is a metal cup-like structure that requires drilling a 1 3/8" by 1/2" hole in the door (if the industrial revolution took place outside your nation’s borders, you’ll probably understand that as 35mm by 13mm).
A major manufacturer of these infernal misunderstanding of what mechanical engineering is for publishes a catalog thicker than the engineer’s head and when you order something they send you the wrong part anyway because the vendor doesn’t understand this convoluted shit either.
Could I… See a picture of Izzy? For science of course.

Very cool. What do you mean the cup hinges?
These sister fisting things.
