This is a 3d model for a clamp to hold the power button. Works smooth... ;-)

I used an online service to create 1 unit.

www.shapeways.com/model/upload-and-buy/7291599

Its $1 cheaper for white plastic @ $8.10 for 1.

I used promo code VPB8N for an instant 15% discount.

Total came out to $11.50

Kind of expensive for a small piece of plastic, but priceless if you think about how easy it is to damage an expensive laptop trying to press and hold and type commands.

Thank you @KingBonecrusher for sharing.

For $11.50 i would get around 500g 1.75mm PLA. I think at least 100 pieces could be printed ;-) For best result use 0.2 resolution and 50% infill.

Hey this is dope. But what is it used for? I understand holding down power button.

But when do you need to do that?

This is needed on some MacBooks while reading the eeprom. Otherwise the dump differs from read to read.
