Hardware Can anyone print a rcm jig for me?

[Eastonator12]

I would pay 10-15 dollars for one of these, a fully completed one with the micro usb cables ready to go. Thanks

i am referring to this: https://github.com/fail0verflow/shofel2/tree/master/rcm-jig

I printed one today, but I guess someone from your state would be better suited for this.

 

[kingraa777]

i second this post surely its dirt cheap to print anyone in the uk or willing to supply one please?

 

[gamesquest1]

I could make them in the UK for a couple of quid, I will print some of the wire versions which seem to be much simpler to make/use

can be made in a veriety of lovely colours
ok, it just really Green,gold,silver,yellow,black or grey

Please, yellow... And I will paint it over with some violet somehow... The perfect Wario Edition.
(now I'm only missing the "shipping to Germany" part)

shouldn't be too much to ship to Germany if you don't want tracked shipping, I will double check but I guess with it being so small it will just be a pound or so on top

I would actually want two... perhaps we could talk it over by PM or in a WTS thread, specially how to pay for it (paypal? SEPA bank transfer? I guess almost anything will do)

 

[gamesquest1]

just for show here is a final made jig, anyone PM me if you want one

 

[naddel81]

printing that thing is not a big deal, but how/where to get that fork?

What do you mean? Do you mean the simplified 3D printing model that uses wire instead of a micro usb socket?
If so, here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2877484

i need one too......i am from Germany .....and i cant mod my joycons i cant afford new ones.

yes this is what i want to know
they talk about micro USB port pins
but i am not sure exactly what they mean i would like to see a video of a tear down of whatever part that they extracted the pins from
i am talking about the fail overflow posted picture of a jig where it says something about pins from the inside of a micro usb port

Then PM gamesquest1 and arrange that

The 3D model from fail0verflow is more complicated, it requires that after printing you go and buy a female micro usb type b socket, break it up, remove a couple of pins, bridge the pins left together, and superglue the socket to the thing you 3d printed.

This other model above is a simplified version, it doesn't require you to buy and destroy a usb socket, it uses a piece of wire instead.

yes i got all that
i was just trying to figure out what they got the pins from
i mean i thought of something like this
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Micro-us...ab-2-A7-20-A7-20F-Ideapad-A1000-/151150027748
but then i thought no way the pins look like they are too bog to have come from something so small

i have not looked into the joycon rail of my switch to see how big the pins in there are so have no idea what size pins wuld be needed

In the f0f version, the pins came exactly from there.
You have to open the metal enclosure, take away the inner part, and that's the pins they used.

ok that is what i thought i just imagined the pins would be bigger
also the fail overflow version looks like it might be safer to me
the one gamesquest posted with the wire looks iffy to me
the fail overflow version have bent springy pins the ends of those copper wires look like they may damage the pins

Wow totally didn't thought of looking if there were some easier jigs on thingiverse. Thank you ! We have a small 3d printer at work, I'll print a handful of these... Tempers from France, PM me if you reaaaally need one

so I need to get a micro USB socket for this to put it in? or glue it in?

no that one uses just copper wire , the one fail overflow posted looks different and uses the pins from a female USB type B micro usb port

this is the FoF version that uses the USB pins

the one you posted the thingieverse link to is this one ,it just uses a copper wire
