Bauer 16mm Projector Case Snap

thingiverse

I possess two Bauer 16mm movieprojectors, with the first one in excellent condition and the second requiring some maintenance. Specifically, a critical component on the second projector – the part responsible for securing the transport case to the device – has become damaged. Unfortunately, since the Bauer company is no longer in operation, I've opted to create the replacement part myself. As you can see from the images provided, there's an old broken part (black), a functioning counterpart taken from my second projector (also black), and the custom-designed parts I've created (orange). If you happen to own one of these projectors and are experiencing issues with this particular snapper mechanism, please feel free to print out the design featured here.
