A door handle for Hotpoint Ariston WDD 9640, WMXTF 942,... washing machines. Should also fit other models.

Three years ago the door handle of our washing machine broke so we needed a replacement. But it was not supplied as replacement - only the complete door for about $150. So I designed and printed a sturdy replacement and it is working to this day. Total cost with the experiments for proper fit - about $5.

There are two STL-files. One has the cut for the latch offset up because our door has a little sagging and that had to be compensated. It was easy to do that in the print instead of correcting the door.

As always a FreeCAD source is provided for making adjustments and modifying the design. Any comments, suggestions,... are welcome. Please post your makes, modifications,...
