WTB Nintendo PCB Mount L-Bracket
« on: October 29, 2017, 09:38:40 pm »
I have misplaced these 2 brackets and hoping someone might have a couple spare they could help me out with. I also need the 2 wing nuts that thread into them.  I saw Mikes Arcade sells them but want to see if someone has any cheaper used first.  Thanks!

That's about $14 in parts at MikesArcade.

Finding someone to sell them to you for less....would be asking them to give them away for free.

Just buy them from Mike. He deserves the $14 for being nice enough to repo them for the community.

If you can read this, it means Photobucket's money grab ruined my signature photos.

Have you tried looking at a hardware store -- they look to be about the same as most L brackets. Or could just get a piece of metal bar the correct size and use a vice to bend it and drill the holes in the right places.

Yeah. I don't think special Nintendo brackets are necessary. Just fabricate something.

Only thing with Mikes is I don’t think the nut is welded to them like originals.

It's an L bracket. This is the definition of overthinking.

If you read his description, the threading is included. You can even see it in the picture if you look close.

Funny because I bought two recently and they were not as pictured.
