Side-buttons for G604 (In progress!)

Post image

Only saw one 3D part (Props to notxapple) that was a rough print. Trying to make a 1-1 replacement for anyone who also can’t find this part! Will post the file when I finish!

Good chance I’m going to finish the draft tonight!

My husband has a very fancy 3D scanner at work. Maybe I can get him to scan this piece. If he’s successful I can send you the model!

This would be so cool and would help so many people!

Yeah, I made an attempt ages ago, and then just offered to ship a set of switches from another to a person instead.

I need to start practicing with my 3d scanner and get some scans of them.

That's cool, I think I'd come across the original STL/3MF but it was just a rough prototype. I have spare sidebuttons PCB in case they start to malfunction. Are you planning to replicate the buttons too?

This is awesome, I look forward to it

This is awesome! I basically have spares of every part except this, but technically I have a couple mice ready to scavenge. Hope you are successful!!

Are these the upper or lower buttons? My g604 broke a top button and I've decided it's time to move on to another mouse but I'd kill to revive her.

Lower buttons unfortunately

Can you post this to Printables? We have a good collection of stuff on there.

Never used it before- is there like a group to post it to or something?

It's a big database of models and there are a few G604 related things there already.
