thickness: height of hinge (the diameter of the pivot is derived from thickness)
length: length along the hinge pivot
leafWidth: width of the hinge leaf (excluding the pivot)
clearance: distance between two connecting surfaces (reduce for structural stability, increase for freedom of motion)
swingLimitTop: limiting angle of the hinge when swinging closed (0-90 degrees)
swingLimitBottom: limiting angle of the hinge when swinging open (0-90 degrees)
bumpHeight: height of pivot bump (depth of pivot indentation)
