What type of material do you have in mind?
What do you want the joint to do?
Need more info!
Hi! material prefably is plastic
joints can be snap fits, collapsible hingesâŚ
mechanisms can be retractable cords/wiresâŚ
thank you mightydesign! nice work on the Saitek range!
I think youâd find a lot of information throughout the web if you used the term âliving hingeâ in your search criteria.
You may want to try this book:

Not cheap, but probably a good reference for your library.
