TecBoss Power Socket Holder

thingiverse

3D pens prove to be handy for repairing 3D prints until they break, requiring a 3D printer to fix the pen itself. The TecBoss took one too many tumbles from its cart, and the piece that holds the power adapter in the black part of the top snapped off. Luckily, a small flat-bladed screwdriver allows you to nudge the tab holding it in place and lift it gently to inspect inside. There's not much wire, so don't yank it out; just raise it up high enough to see the screw that holds it in place. Using a small screwdriver, gently unscrew the old power adapter holder, and remove it. Print out a new one, set the power adapter into the top (it's rectangular), feed the screw into the printed part, find the old screw hole, and fit the new part so it will hold the power connector in place. Don't over-tighten. Once we got it back together, it worked like a charm.
