Baggage Latch Guide Block

[NWIP]

Someone posted a good source for the pictured guide block used on the baggage doors. I can’t find the thread, please help. Newmar wants a ridiculous $40 for it

I know we just saw one recently, but like you search failed me when trying to find it again.

FYI: If you have access to a 3D printer, a user named CeptoRider posted this out on Newmar New Aire Basement Latch Guide by CeptoRider | Download free STL model | Printables.com where you can download the file for free.

Best,
-Mark

This might help if you want to try fabricating one or repairing yours.

@Neal has a 3D printer. Maybe he can mfg. a bunch of them and sell them to us guys dirt cheap

I think since @NWIP is driving what Newmar now considers a 750K coach that he should just buy the darned part while there and be done with it

While my labor rates are on par with off shore rates, you know things as of late have really jacked up my charges and I also charge international shipping even if delivered locally. Ya know...gotta keep food in the dog bowl!!

 

[NWIP]

I know here at mothership parts store something’s are cheaper than on online but struggling with some of the markups. Dometic toilet seat 35% and DEF head 100% . My Amazon stock price has been falling due to @Neal going on shopping hiatus.
I’ve had great service here don’t get me wrong. Slide adjustments and slide roof resealed which also got my slide toppers tighten up.

I saw somewhere, someone had made one out of a plastic cutting board. Just find one the right thickness and make a pattern.

I’d be happy to 3D print for you @NWIP just let me know. I may download the design and check it out but it seems to look different than what I remember that piece looking like.

It seems pretty basic and you could even make one out of wood.

As to pricing I’m not surprised. Seems like everything priced at Newmar is out of control now.

Here is a youtube link where the author provides info on material to buy to cut out the glides.

I also charge international shipping

Does this mean you will be personally flying said replacement part to wherever @NWIP might be?

 

[Neal]

Absolutely. At this time, each door lock guide mechanism is estimated to cost, well, I've applied all of my discounts to ensure you all get the best deal, like Newmar, shipping included:

$3800/unit

I've been fighting my 3D printer all day to try and print some of these. I think I may finally have broken the barrier to all the roadblocks my printer was throwing me. I even went to order a new Prusa Core One printer except my credit card doesn't support 3D secure which they required so I had to cancel it. In the end, probably a good thing. This printer has just become a pain! Now to see if it can make it through this 14 hour print!

By the time here done printing I could be in Alaska. Happy flying.

Those look like the old style with the narrow section. I pictured the “new improved” which breaks just as often

 

[Neal]

I'm printing the ones that someone posted as the design. They look different from what I think I have but we'll see. I'll throw a batch in the coach and compare someday, just like I have the 3D printed house water filter wrenches and sani-con wet bay port cover I give out at times.

 

[NWIP]

Good customer service, I have 1 of those filter wrenches

I have seen pictures of 3 different shapes. They are all similar, but definitely different. Someone (I think on FB) had printed a bunch, and I bought 4-5 of them. This was last summer and I do not remember who it was. They seem to be really good.
