VHS Cassette Case Keyring

UPDATE 09/10/2025: Added a new print profile to accommodate NFC tags up to 25mm x 1mm. Print pauses at layer 238 to allow you to ‘slot’ an NFC tag into the model(s).

If you want the NFC tag to instantly play movies from a ‘Jellyfin’ media server then user 8Bits1beard has an open source project on GitHub which you can find here: https://github.com/8bits1beard-io/vhs-tap

Model Details

The model can be used as a keyring or with multiples, as a display piece! two types of storage/display cases have been included for this purpose. You can use the keychains that are available on Bambu Lab website but these are standard ring keychains. To allow the ability to change out your keyring easily it is advised you purchase some ‘Lobster Clasp’ keychains from somewhere like AliExpress or Amazon.

Some PDFs with 20 VHS covers have been provided and can be found in the "Documentation' section. Please note that finding authentic VHS covers is very difficult, so please don't ask me to provide covers for rare or obscure movies. You can do what I did and use Google, Pinterest or The Internet Archive to find classic VHS covers. The print dimensions for the mini covers is H5.02cm x W6.64cm.
