OnShape fix of Broken Headset Clamp - MDR-XB650BT

thingiverse

### Problem My SONY MDR-XB650BT broke, during the quarantaine that is an unfortunate situation when you have to be constantly on calls. ### CAD Solution So I went ahead and designed a clamp for it to hold the broken part in-place, by measuring dimensions and using PTC's OnShape web-based CAD tool you can also sign-up for free: https://www.onshape.com/ As the tool is free and designs are publicly available I'm sharing the actual CAD design with you as well: [CAD Model of Headset Clamp](https://www.google.com/url?q=https://cad.onshape.com/documents/e66685191611ab7a88524a2c/w/ad6e113b5e2d46fc67a1ec37/e/2841af7a6a86b59a654c60fa&sa=D&source=hangouts&ust=1585842712342000&usg=AFQjCNHiKqhdjO6KYi4TSNv5VAX3XZEw4A). ### Versions The first version I created was basically an extruded part with some fillets to make the edges less sharp, ... and added a logo top make it a bit fancy. Printed it as draft, turning out that the curvature of the bands - however being a circle with 16cm diameter - still created a bit of un-even sit, forecasting the clamp to eventually falling off again. The second version has a bent shape, accurately aliging to the curvature of the band. This version now sits perfectly! So perfect, that I decided to put one clamp also on the healty side of the headset, so I have a symmetric look&feel. The final print in black looks really great. The print itself snaps tightly. I glued them with super-glue to hold the head-set in place.
