3D Printer File For Famicom Slide Ejector

Post by Steamflogger Boss »

I need to replace this plastic mechanism on my Famicom and was wondering (hoping) if anyone here had already done so and still had the file.

There is this piece:

But if you're talking about the internal eject part, I've sent you a picture by PM. You can have it if you just cover the cost of shipping.

Thank you very much. The thingiverse file is exactly what I need.

The actual spring and mechanism inside are fine but I appreciate the offer. The issue is completely just the outside thing. Due to age, whoever had it before or something there is a small chip on the front and then a crack that goes down from that chip. Pushing it to eject a game stresses it and it probably didn't have too long left.

Excellent. My Famicom's eject tab also has a slight stress crack, but it's a moot point since I don't plan to ever use it again with a NESRGB board in place.

I would recommend printing that part out of ABS or nylon, PLA's probably too brittle for those displacement tabs.
