3D ST/e face plate - SONY MPF920 1.44/720k FLOPPY DRIVE

Post by Chris O. »

Hi all...
I am in the process of designing 3D printed faceplate for Exxos Sony MPF920 floppy drive 1.44MB replacement.

Modular design hopefully easier to modify for different drives.
Needs two small screws for Eject button M1.7 * 6mm.
Note: Only tested on Atari 1040 STe case and MPF920 Z/161 SEP2005.

So I need to adjust the thickness of the spacer or print one more (Need extra clearance for floppy disk with old labels).

So I used 1.5mm spacer on my Atari ST/e case.
Bottom of the Atari ST/e case flush with the front flat part of the faceplate. :D
