Lid hinge for 3d printer enclosure door by Pelon15

I remember they used to sell some really nice aluminum hinges for this purpose but like everything you don't need you always see until the day that you need it, it disappears and I don't know what they call them so to find them online or ask someone no one knew what I was talking about and I couldn't find them anywhere I even looked in thingiverse to see if anyone had made one but since I don't even know what they are called I couldn't find anything and at the moment I didn't know how to use fusion 360 so I decided to teach my self how to use it and finally make my own, I know I could probably have made some out of wood but I needed an excuse to learn fusion 360. I'm happy to finally have them. just to put them on right is a little tricky. I attached some pictures to give you an idea, is important to make or align the holes with the lid closed so when you close the lid, the hinges fold nicely like in the picture other wise when you close it the hinges might fold in to the printer space getting on the way.
