>Philips announced a new initiative called "Philips Fixables" which aims to encourage self-repair on some of its products by offering officially drafted 3D printable replacement components. The files are made available for free over at Printables.com. This is where Philips plans to archive files for more official replacements that can be 3D printed at home.

Well, if you need one printed just post here. One of us with a printer will happily print and send one to you.

Thanks, I do appreciate that. But I do need to get a 3D printer and get familiar with it. Any suggestions for a unit? Should get like a el cheapo or buy a luxury model?

It really depends on how much you think you might use it and what your skill level is. Mine is old as hell and I have had to modify the fuck out of it to make it work better and to not burn my house down. has a much newer setup that works great and is multi-color/type.

I suggest posting a new thread to to ask your questions. There are plenty of us here and we are all happy to answer questions or give suggestions. Who knows, maybe if I can move soon I'll upgrade and I send you my old one or something.
