I really enjoyed Matthew Bogner's Desktop Dumpster model, but I wanted the lids to overhang the front edge of the dumpster slightly, just to be a little easier to flip back.  While I was at it, I also decided to close up the gaps near the hinges, just as a personal aesthetic preference.

I printed these in TPU so that they felt and sounded like real dumpster lids.  The “handles" printed fine for me in PLA without any supports, but I just couldn't get them to print cleanly in TPU.  I ended up adding snug supports, just under the handles and by setting fan speed to 100% on support interfaces (Orcaslicer setting) I was able to get TPU supports to release.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

Lengthened the lids slightly and moved back edges closer to the hinge to eliminate gaps.
