Atari 2600 Game Cartridge Holder 

About 

I've had my old Atari 2600 games sitting on a shelf disorganized for years like some sort of monster. I recently finally decided to do something about it and blah blah this model. This game cartridge holder is designed to hold up to 6 original Atari 2600 game cartridges. I'm providing this model in two forms: 

  1. The cartridge holder with the Atari logo walls as one piece
  2. The cartridge holder with the Atari logo legs printed separately. 

Most of the instructions to follow will focus on the second form. The photos provided will highlight the second form as it's visually more interesting. 

 

Size 

The printed and assembled model measures: 

  • 99.64mm wide due to some variance with the Atari logo legs. These legs should stick out a bit on the sides.
  • 94.93mm deep, cartridge not included in that measurement. When measuring with the original Missile Command cartridge in place, it's 104.78mm deep.
  • 173mm high 

 

Printing and Assembly 

The example I have documented in the included photos was printed using Elegoo black PLA-CF for the main shelf body and Elegoo red Matte PLA for the Atari logo legs. I used supports on the main body due to the cutouts for the red Atari legs. When assembling your model, you must carefully remove all supports from those recesses. The separate legs on the second form of this model friction fit and have tight tolerances. Depending on how you slice it, you may choose to use a little CA glue. The tolerances on my print were so close that I didn't need to. 

If you choose to print the one piece form of this model, you will almost certainly need supports. 

Try reorienting the objects in the 3MF file before slicing to suit your printer's needs and your preferences with printing.
