Summary

Remix of toilet seat hinge http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:39750, with the added ability to create either a lid hinge or a seat hinge.

To customize, use OpenSCAD or the Customizer app. For a hinge which attaches to the seat, choose a sidedness of 0; for a hinge which attaches to the lid, choose a sidedness of 1. The sidedness variable affects whether the screw head cutouts are placed on the same side as the hinge or the opposite side of the hinge. So choose either 0 or 1 for sidedness and then confirm that the screw head cutouts are on the appropriate side of the hinge for your application.

See also the original thing for more instructions. Basically, you can choose the screw placement, the dimensions, the geometry of the hinge, etc., by keying those variables into the top of the SCAD file or using the Customizer app.

I've included STLs for a lid hinge and a seat hinge that worked for my lid and seat. But I assume that my measurements will not work for you. So I encourage you to specify your own measurements in the SCAD file or Customizer.
