Atari 7800 Stand

thingiverse

I made this to allow the mess of wires from my Commodore 64 to pass underneath the console to reclaim some desk space. This would also be useful if you have a controller adapter for the 7800 that sticks down too far and bumps into your table. Print the top and bottom pieces as-is. Print four legs scaled at 99%. Use gentle force to push the whole mess together. Then, use four medium-sized zip ties to attach the stand to the bottom of the console using its built-in wire guides (see images). Make sure to utilize tension with each zip tie equally or it won't be centered. The result is a pretty sturdy stand that allows you to gently put in a cartridge without everything falling over or breaking, though I would still recommend holding onto the console when inserting a cart.
