O2 Power Supply Cover Clip Repair - Irinikus - 04-15-2022

The Other day I had the rather unfortunate eventuality occur in that the Clip on the Power Supply cover on My O2 broke!

Rather than trying to glue it back together at the point where it cracked, I opted to glue it back with epoxy and a rectangular piece of spring steel.





The result is a respectable looking fix which should hopefully be more robust in the long run!

I'm still pretty upset, but this should at least last!

The fix worked! (Even though the tab has a barely visible hairline crack in it, which does annoy me to some degree, it's now at least possible to remove and replace the cover without worrying!)

Here are some pics of the machine:

That's the first picture of the dual head adapter I've seen...that's a unicorn accessory right there :-)
