Snap Circuits Hand Crank handle replacement

thingiverse

My child damaged the handle section of his Snap Circuits Hand Crank generator (6SCHC). Elenco offers affordable replacement parts; however, I didn't want to discard the entire set due to a tiny plastic break. Although not an exact substitute and not folding neatly into the box like the original piece, this fix restores functionality. Initially, I only measured the first shaft without realizing how small the hole would be (rev 1), but rev2 is full-sized. I recommend using rev2; it's more accurate. Print the replacement (ABS material usually works, and you may need support) by drilling a hole for the original metal linkage rod, installing the rod, and returning the circuit component to its owner.
