Amiga 500 Mini - (A500 Mini) Mini Floppy Disk

prusaprinters

<p>A mini floppy disk for your A500 Mini.</p><p>I designed this to be printable and look great with a standard FDM printer using a standard 0.4mm nozzle(Prusa, Ender etc). But I've included a lot of detail(for such a simple model) that will really come out well when printing with a 0.25mm nozzle or resin printer.&nbsp;</p><p>A floppy disk is not just a square/rectangular thing, it has subtle curves here and there and some indentations which I've added to this.</p><p>I use a tiny amount of Blu tack inside the “floppy drive” to hold the disk in there nice a solid. You could use glue to make it permanent, or increase the height of the disk a small amount before printing if you want to really jam it in there.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Floppy Disk Label(Right click and save, print 31.5mm x 16.6mm):</p><p>&nbsp;</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/170947/rich_content/c93f321b-f704-41ca-afa6-328854460dc0/cu_amiga-cover_disk_49-jan1993-a500_mini_floppy-retromanie.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%224d190620-1103-478a-b619-cd13856bf8eb%22%2C%22w%22%3A1657%2C%22h%22%3A877%7D"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Update:</strong></p><p>Added a small insert floppy disk to look like you have a disk fully pushed into the A500 Mini. You're best printing this in a flexible material like TPU as once its inserted its hard to remove if it doesn't have any flex to it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Update 2:</strong><br>Someone has tried to claim this is their model over on Thingiverse and that I'm using it without permission(issued a DMCA takedown notice).&nbsp;</p><p>Here is my Fusion 360 design process as proof of design in case they try that here. Note that I also include the step files for download along with the STL.<br>&nbsp;</p><figure class="media"><oembed url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qnmw5DO2AWQ"></oembed></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>.</p>
