[Boatanchors] Need Jones Plug

One of the new public libraries constructed here (Colo Springs) has Maker Spaces and a 3D printer but when I asked 3 months ago (just after their open house) about getting time on it was already booked about 4 months out. There are a couple of places that provide a 3D service for hire. The other Maker group is still looking for a permanent home, if I recall right. Too bad Radio Shack missed out on the Maker Movement beginnings.

Some towns have 'MAKER' groups   and  there  may be one  near  you  with a 
printer that all share.... join up!

The fly in the ointment may be the  printer itself. The ones I've seen 
weren't cheap. The ones that can be rented  here are booked for months.

Excellent  Idea Wayne!  
 
This  concept  can be applied to  other   connecters
that  have become unobtainum!

Might  also be a 3-D printer project to make the insulated parts (using ABS 
or  similar hard plastic) and rob the pins from garden variety  plugs?

I imagine one could cobble up a pair of pin strips,  simulating the plug 
with 
two narrow plugs, by cutting down a big plug  like this one:

Hi Gary,
I don't think that connector is  used on anything else.  And you'd like 
2 of them?  I'd be  happy to have one for my HX-500, I've been on the 
lookout for one for  6-8 yrs.  If you find a source, there are several 
HX-500 owners out  there who would like one.
