Error with 44568 (official part) ? - Bertrand Lequy - 2024-08-17
Hi again.
It seems there's an error with 44568. The usage of p\clh6 is not correct since it's symetrical and the two fingers are not on this part.
I have this part on my desk right now and I see the same that's shown on this picture :
![[Image: 6276045.jpg]](https://www.minifigur.se/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/6276045.jpg)
Does it exist two versions of this part, one with symetrical fingers and one without ?

looks like you are correct and the official part is wrong...
fortunately, the correct "fingers are already there:
https://library.ldraw.org/official/29539
https://library.ldraw.org/official/29540
in this part: https://library.ldraw.org/official/26031
maybe its sufficient to fix it by just replacing it.
(the new fingers are much newer than the part)

Are there 2 versions or not?
RE: Error with 44568 (official part) ? - Rene Rechthaler - 2024-08-17
checked my parts: they are all the same (with the up/down fingers)
-> official part is wrong
RE: Error with 44568 (official part) ? - Gerald Lasser - 2024-08-17
Rene is right, only up/down are existing. I think we had this discussion somewhere in the forum. I made the prim, but I can't remember why the part was not touched.

Do you then want to fix the part (since the prims are yours)?

corrected including other geometry

What's the benefit of this design?
RE: Error with 44568 (official part) ? - Gerald Lasser - 2024-08-17
I guess the force required to disassemble the two parts of the hinges is less, you can twist it....
Edit: After doing some tests, I can't really tell what's better

same reason why 95120.dat has holes through the bottom: to get an easier molding...
if there are two full dents facing each other, it would be quite difficult to unmold.
