Case for 1541 UII+ tape adapter v3.4
Released by Camelot @ Gubbdata 2017, 30/06/2017

Background:
As I got my 1541U I wanted a case for my tape adapter 
- having a 3D printer I checked the web to see if someone 
already had made an stl, but I only found some overpriced 
preprinted cases. No one released an stl until recently, 
and when it was released it wasn't free. That's not in the 
spirit of the c64 scene, so when I had a spare night where 
I didn't have to deal annoying kids and a demanding wife
(Just kidding, honey), I meassured out my tape adapter and
did a free model on my own.

So here it is the first version of the official Camelot
Case for the 1541U II+ tape adapter v3.4.

The case might fit other versions too, but I really don't
know :)

Feel free to print it, but if you want to sell your prints,
I encourage you to do it for cost price. It's our duty to
protect the worlds dying population of C64's from death by 
static! ;)

Also, if you want to modify it for other versions of the
tapeadapter, I encourage you to do so, because I probably 
won't :)

Greetings to the whole C64 scene past and present, and 
especially the gentlemen present at Gubbdata 2017, as well
as the developers of 1541U, and firmware and tools for it
You guys rock!


Cheers

PS: coming soon - a replacement case stl for the 1541U II+
in a similar design
