Wireless SNES Dual Turbo Controller Battery Lid by SomeFishySnail

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

I made this lid for a friend who lost one of his. it's a simple reproduction that was done in about a hour in Solid Edge using only a calliper for measurements.
It's not a perfect reproduction, you will need to sand it after print to make it fit perfectly, but it gets the job done.
I included 2 .idea files to use in IdeaMaker so that it's already placed with support material at the correct key places.
I printed mine upstraight because it gives the most strenght and accuracy accross the X and Y axis for this particular part, which was important for the tabs and little locking mechanism. However it's also possible to print flat with proper support orientation but the accuracy of some areas will most likely suffer.
I printed it in PLA, but any material should do, it's not a piece that requieres very high strenght.
The locking mechanism part is not perfect however, it could be angled much better and the curve should be made thinner to allow a more flexible piece, but I only needed one of them so I didn't really feel the need to tweak it and print it again since the first one worked just fine after a bit of sanding. Feel free to remix it to make it perfect.
