This is a replacement handle for the GE Spacemaker XL Microwave.  

You need to print this on its side, and I did use organic supports for the screw mounts. 
I wanted a beefy print, so I used the following settings. You can adjust as you see fit.  Overall, this handle is completely more secure/sturdy than any of the replacement handles I have bought over the years, when you could still get them.

Settings used:
Gyroid infil 25% infil
7 walls
Tree > organic  >critical areas only for the screw mounts 

This print was in PLA as i wanted to test fit it and see how it worked. I will probably reprint in PETG in the future. 

  • There are two versions as the area that the handle tends to always fail is at the bottom mounting point due to it taking the majority of the opening force.  

    • GE_spacemakerXL_microwave-handle-extended_hole - the screw hole at the bottom goes 5mm into the handle. (This allows me to use a longer screw to ensure better stability/strength over time)

    • GE_spacemakerXL_microwave-handle-no_ext - was just long enough for my screw, which is flush to the face of the handle. (had concerns of this being a fail point, which led me to use a longer screw that goes into the handle itself)
