Mac box parts.

[RayBob58]

I'm just starting a restoration of my Mac 10 drawer chest. I bought this thing used in 1988, so I'm guessing it's an early 80's box. I need 3 of the drawer clips. I already called and emailed Mac. They're looking, but it doesn't sound promising. Any suggestions on where I could look? Haven't checked ebay yet.

If you can't find them you could always try to fab your own from thick banding material. It should have enough springiness to be functional if not exactly matching.

The clip looks like the ones used on older Cman boxes made by Waterloo. Might try Waterloo

^^^ Agree. These look like they'd work.

Well, I got a return email from Mac on the drawer stop clips. They say they are available in packs of 10. Part # XSC-A. I haven't checked it out yet, but the number they gave me to order is 800-622-8665.

I finally found the model number on the rear panel, top left. It's an MB 5100 K2.

I got a couple of pieces of metal strapping from the Parts Department at work.

A little bending and cutting, I made the parts in question for my Mac box. It took less than 20 minutes, and material was free
