FLOPPY CLICK | THE RETRO-TECH COASTER HOLDER
PRO TIP: We recommend using PETG, ASA, or ABS for the PINS and SPRINGS to ensure greater durability!
A unique coaster holder inspired by the iconic aesthetic of vintage computers. It’s a mechanical tribute to the era of beige plastic and 8-bit dreams.
Designed to pair perfectly with the MOUSE CLICK, this model brings a nostalgic aesthetic to your workspace while keeping you relaxed and your drinks open.
The coasters (designed exactly like classic floppy disks) slide into the drive with a satisfying mechanical "click." Using a mechanism inspired by the classic retractable pen, your coasters stay securely locked inside until you’re ready to use them. Need a drink? Just click again, and your floppy pops out, ready for action.
You can choose how to display your setup:
-
The Tower: Stand it upright for a modern vertical look.
-
The Desktop: Attach the retro-style feet to lay it flat, mimicking the classic horizontal PC cases of the 80s.
Every floppy disk coaster is a blank canvas. You can fully customize them with your favorite colors, labels, names, or logos directly in the slicer. Whether you want to "save" your coffee or your brand, the choice is yours.
Inside the download, you’ll find a detailed guide to ensure a perfect print and a smooth assembly process.

Thanks!!
Springs are not springy anymore after just a few hours to a day. I'll try PETG next. Hope it will work. But I have to say, that my filament wasn't the driest, even after drying for multiple hours. Maybe I'll print the case in PETG too, because it has some minor blemishes.
Thanks for your feedback! Some people recommend printing the PIN and SPRINGS in PETG for greater durability. Personally, I printed them in eSun PLA, and after a week they’re still working great!
Now I just need the reference for the filament you used to get that old-yellowed-plastic, please! Thoughts about using bone color filament, but not sure it will give the proper result.
