Toshiba TV Stand (model# 32C100U2)

Toshiba TV Stand (model# 32C100U2)

I have a friend in his 70's that had an older working Toshiba TV, but no stand for it to be self standing. Somewhere in the move stand was taken off and probably tossed. I told him I would make him a stand for it. I had some 3D Fuel Pro PCTG and SainSmart TPU.

When I told him I would 3d print a new stand for him, he had no idea of the final outcome. I don't know if he knows what a 3d printer is. He was a boat mechanic all his career. Loved turning wrenches. When he saw the final part, he asked me did your pour the plastic into a mold of something to get that shape. I told him no, I designed the model and it was build layer by layer with my PRUSA CORE ONE. He was fascinated that I was able to print the TPU feet too.

I gathered the measurements I needed and went to town on the model. Took about 20 mins to design a simple model with bolt clearances and such. He did not have the bolts for the base either. I went to my local McFaden Dale Hardware and picked up some Stainless Steel 5mm bolts and washers. I did double stack the washers for more surface area. Stainless Steel 5mm washer next to the 5mm BHCS head and then the Stainless Steel #10 washer below that.

Gave this 16 year old TV a second life for a friend. He uses a HDMI Roku stick in it and it works great. I hate to see good old electronics trashed for no reason.

This poor TV had lost its Zapato (shoe). Now it will live on. Don't know how long the capacitors in the TV will last. I warned my friend that will be the thing that probably kills the TV is the aging capacitors.
