For the price you might expect a Replicator 2X would come with a hinge for the vacuum formed (and very welcome) lid. (Wait, what am I thinking...)
Here is a somewhat delux / overengineered version of hinges and handle for this model. It uses ball bearing for the hinge and will support the lid nicely when open.
You could get away with printed hinge bearings but it would not be as "nice". (And we all know how important it is to be nice). But for those who wish to tweak, there are source design files in rhino3D and STEP formats.
Works like a bought one. Enjoy.
