If you're making Simonarri's dumpster: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4041269
With the intent of making a dumpster fire with Marvinmar's "fire" effect: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4041269
The problem is that the dumpster lids have to remain open, and the underside of the lid is just solid, and not very realistic looking.
I took Simonarri's lids, and sort of hollowed them out a bit, to make them look a bit more like the molded plastic lids you'd see on a dumpster, so when they're open, they look more pleasing.
These are tricky to print, I ended up printing mine at an angle such that one part of the "top" surface that will now face the back of the dumpster (and generally not be seen) was flat. And supports were used for the portion that angles up and the ridges. The result isn't super pretty, but, that's the side that is out of sight.
Now you can have good looking dumpster lids when they're open!
Don't forget to print everything at 200% so it matches the fir
