Wilson Bradley Posted Monday at 03:24 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:24 PM (edited) Hi Atarians... Is anyone with a Atari ST (Slanted floppy /no button hole) using Gotek internal floppy emulator? I'm having an EXTREEMLY hard time finding a bracket holder that fits in my Atari 1040 ST Slanted drive. Mine has the Rotary Dial Looking for recommendations. Thanks Edited Monday at 03:38 PM by Wilson Bradley Added pic // more info 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks My STFM does have that floppy drive opening and the Gotek fits. The Gotek was bought complete from an eBay vendor for Atari ST and I am pretty sure this is the mount that I have:- https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4934355 The Gotek is mounted upside down to allow direct connection to the floppy ribbon cable otherwise it would need a twist in the ribbon and be too short. Unfortunately I have mislaid the Gotek somewhere while working on my STFM and just gone to re-assemble the ST and it's vanished! When I find it I can confirm! However I haven't needed it since building a SidecarT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TZJB Posted Monday at 07:04 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:04 PM I found my Gotek and although it fits, it's not that brilliant. I don't think that I put the case screws in when I tried it the first time. The bracket isn't made that well but it does it's job. The Gotek bracket sits back behind the floppy drive opening. I needed to space the Gotek higher using a single 4mm washer on each mount although I think I really need 2 in which case I will need longer bolts. The bolts are just long enough with one washer. I also don't have a rotary selector so this mount is not exactly the same as the one I thought it was, but it is similar. I hope that this may help. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Same issue I am having - everything is for the other style drive. I've had an ebay link saved for nearly 2 years now, and I've given up on it ever coming back in stock. I was going to post the link for you, but I guess Ebay said "fu*k you - you don't need that saved any more". Good luck in your search - if I find anything, I'll report back here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Bradley Posted 4 hours ago Author Share Posted 4 hours ago Thank you so much for the replies. Just looking for a frame, already have a Gotek, it just doesnt fit right having the long button drive. Per TXJB , this one will have to work. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4934355 Or Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
