Atari 7800 Cartridge Guide (2600 Cart Compatible)

thingiverse

Owners of an original Atari 7800 will know all too well that certain unusually shaped 2600 cartridges will bend and eventually break your internal cartridge guide. This printable model hopes to help with this issue by giving you a replacement. There are one or two other replacement cart guides available from online sources, but only this version has been designed to be compatible with the most 2600 cartridges possible. You'll want some decent infill to make sure the screw posts are nice and strong. You will also want to tweak retraction distance, otherwise the pins might not print fully. Cura's default setting proved to be too much. Using 4.5 millimeters and watching it carefully to make sure it feeds properly after each retraction seems to help.
