Hey everyone. I’m in the middle of repairing a 505 with a broken m mount. I tried gluing it back together and it seemed to work, but I was getting skipping/looping problems. I am a 3D printing enthusiast and I decided to go ahead and try my hand at modeling the VLN1700. My unit has the older gray model so that’s what I’m working off of. When I’m done with the model I will release it so others can improve it and/or use it to get their players working again. I’m not interested in trying to turn it into a business or anything, I just want us to be able to fix our players. Here’s a pic of my in progress model.

Hey everyone. I came across a CLD-505 at a Goodwill for $19.99, took her home and found a broken M Mount inside. I did research looking for replacements and of course discovered they were no longer being produced. I then searched for files to 3D print a new one and found that others were working on them, but not much progress or public releases. So I started trying to create my own in the last 2 weeks and have successfully created a working prototype. It's by no means perfect and could probably still use some tweaking, which is why I am fully releasing not only .STL files, but also model files in Fusion 360 and .STEP format for others to tweak the design themselves. I've released the files to the public domain without any restrictions.

You can find the files on my Thingiverse page here : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4839120

Also available at Prusa Printers : https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/64739-pioneer-laserdisc-vnl-1779-m-mount

I've modified the design of the original to accept metal shafts which can be found on Amazon.
The smaller of the 2 gears has a 2mm inner diameter for the shafts, and the larger gear is 2.5mm.

2.0mm : https://amzn.to/3gHEyPg
2.5mm : https://amzn.to/3eAsixz

This is more of a DIY solution. You must be willing to tinker around and assemble the part. It's working for me, but YMMV.

Hope this helps!
