Commodore 1581 Replica Case

thingiverse

This is a case for the awesome Commodore 1581 floppy disk drive replica project presented [by toms01 on Forum 64](https://www.forum64.de/index.php?thread/102472-1581replica-gotek1581-1581-pc-drive-adapter/&pageNo=1). The case closely resembles the original with some practical changes to make it more 3D-printable and to accommodate 'modern' PC drives. Most of the credit for this design actually belongs to [Braincell](https://www.thingiverse.com/braincell/designs) who granted me permission to publish all files together. The files included here will currently fit the following disk drives: * Samsung SFD-321B * TEAC FD-235HF-D291 (relabled Sony MPF920 ?) Select and print the appropriate eject button. For other drives, a new eject button would probably be required and possibly a modified drive mount. See photos for hints on how to assemble. The original posts in which the design was published can be found [here](https://www.forum64.de/index.php?thread/102472-1581replica-gotek1581-1581-pc-drive-adapter/&postID=1722477#post1722477) and [here](https://www.forum64.de/index.php?thread/102472-1581replica-gotek1581-1581-pc-drive-adapter/&postID=1727074#post1727074). **** Please note the license for this design! It does NOT allow for commercial use. **** ### Update 2022-05-01 Again thanks to the generous contribution by [Braincell](https://www.thingiverse.com/braincell/designs), there is now an alternative "fascia" design which allows PC floppy drives to be used *including* their front plates. Please note that you will also have to print the modified drive mount part that goes with this. The top and bottom halves of the case will fit either way. See [here](https://www.forum64.de/index.php?thread/125611-1581-3d-drucktips/&postID=1833015#post1833015) for additional information. **** Please note the license for this design!
