Wanted - Case for 1040 STE

I came in the possesion of a 1040STE, which is working but seems to have had a rough ‘life’, the case is in terrible shape, missing screws, missing the brass support for the floppy drive, etc. So, basically I need a reasonable case to recase this machine to it’s former glory.

I am located in the Netherlands, So, if you have something let me know.

Cheers,

Robert

If you have 3d Printing capability, you can print your own floppy support: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3069894

You'll need to add a grounding wire, or run a separate one to the floppy, but it'll do the trick if you can't get a brass one.

If you need other floppy supports, I designed a set you can print here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3219623

There are some shorter posts in here too to accomodate various floppy drive types.

Ok, this topic can be closed. I've found a proper case for my STE.
