Description

Case repairs clips for the Commodore VIC-20. These replace cracked or broken rear clips that hold the case shell together. I highly recommend using a two-part epoxy. The grooves provide more surface area for better adhesion. The v2 variation has additional ridges in the grooves to theoretically give even more grip, but may be tricker to print.

To use:

  • Trim the clip(s) to be repaired flush with the case
  • Scrape the area between the clip's ribs on the case to create a textured surface for the epoxy.
  • Test fit the repair clip.
  • Apply epoxy to both surfaces, Make sure to get some into the grooves of the repair clips.
  • Position the clip, making sure the top of the ridges / grooves are flush with the case (see photos).
  • Clamp and let cure. I waited a full 24 hours before removing the clamps and testing to be safe
