    Default needed: Nishijin model C back latches

    Anyone have spares of these squeeze latches that hold the playfield on? Either good condition used ones, or a line on 3D printing new ones?
    Any help would be appreciated!

    yeah like more than one person has recommended it, but I've never heard of them actually being used.

    Has anyone ever done a 3d print of them, or can anyone here do a 3d print of them?

    I read you . I did check Ebay and the listings for Pachinko parts and they just has playfields and doors but no C-Clips or the fasteners that you are looking for .

    +1 ... I am in the same boat ... my machine needs five of these latches, the plastic is very brittle with age and all of the barbs have broken off. Fyi there are also rubber-like "lock plugs" that fit into each latch to keep the barbs engaged

    IMG_0860.jpegIMG_0859.jpegIMG_0898.jpeg

    For the time being I am planning to replace the existing screws on these with #4 x 1 1/4" screws and add a fender washer that will cover the entire latch hole, but would prefer to be able to find the proper plastic replacement parts if they are available.

    Thanks. John
