Making an unavailable, proprietary USB cable with 3D printing

I bought a state of the art VBOX system (well at least it was ten years ago), but it was missing a critical USB cable needed for convenient setup. The entire thing was out of production and the only thing matching the part number was expensive and looked different. Therefore, the only solution was to try and make my own. This video contains the whole process from start to finish. It’s not perfect but it is viable, plus I have the satisfaction of DIY. 0:00 Introduction 3D scanning vintage car vent video: 0:47 The product and the problem VBOX Motorsport store: VBOX store: Video VBOX waterproof camera kit: 2:32 Searching for the cable Datasheet: USB Wikipedia: Cable datasheet: 3:49 Janky proof of concept cable 5:29 Designing and modelling the pin housing 8:18 Designing the body housing 9:43 Final Ingredient 11:10 TPU waterproof cap 11:47 Conclusion Buy quality and affordable filament from X3D.
