I've got a lot of cartridges together with console having broken or missing shutters. So the cartridges simple doesn't work with consoles like Woodgrain or Darth Vader anymore as these having shutters for their cartridge slot.
After a quick study the problem can be easily solved by an inlay I've developed within a few minutes.


Atari cartridges are most likely affected as Imagic and others do not use shutters instead having single pins on the back. Those will break of course as well but not in the same way.
The developed inlay will be installed within a few seconds without opening the cartridge. It is fixed by a rubber band and was successful tested with different consoles. I will test with other cartridges as well and will alter it to work with most of them as well. Price is currently at ~ $1/item but after optimization of production process it will be cheaper of course. this is the next step to final production.
this might save many cartridges to be dumped.
