    Wife's fav is Halloween, we have 10 life sized skeletons but 4 with broken "hip joints." If you have a 3D printer, print these to replace the spring housing. The bottom part of the joint almost never breaks, not included.

    The attached zip contains two versions, one with a tab and one without, disassemble your skeleton joint to figure out which one you need. More info in the readme. The spring washers are the same.

    When printing rotate the casing objects 180 degrees for minimal support generation. The washers should be fine as is.

    I used pink for no other reason than I'm experimenting with various materials (this is PLA.) PETG will also work but it seems more brittle and prone to breaking.
