Re: Cloning the GameCube component cable
how accurate are home based 3d printers to be able to provide a detailed resolution at 0.5mm ? i know some allow 0.3, but even then the issue at hand still comes down to overall strength of the connector... Well I haven't exactly put this to the test, but my 3D printer (Form 1) is one of the ones t...

Re: Cloning the GameCube component cable
Yes, as Unseen described, I'm talking about printing a housing that you would slide pins into. I'm in electrical engineering and have dealt with many of these types of connectors over the years and with a 3D sitting in the room next to me, I just put two and two together. The specific Digi-Key part ...

Re: Cloning the GameCube component cable
Just registered to say that this is awesome. Also: Regarding the wire porn of connecting to the GC, has anyone considered modeling a connector that uses some standard pin (e.g. Digi-Key PN WM2624-ND) and using a 3D printer to fab it? I have a decent 3D printer but don't have good enough 3D modeling ...
