As far as your Mrs' car ash tray is concerned, at least in my experience (mostly Japanese and Korean cars) if you pop and lift out the ash tray then under the spring there is generally a screw, two or three. If you remove the spring/catcher the space in volume can near double. Now with the spring and retention gone if you want a catch to stop the whole drawer sliding out loose in your hand then a couple nubs of epoxied plastic or aluminium sheet (natural to the insert removal as normal) should do the trick. Dremel some slits in the frot top of the ash tray bay and depending on the dash etc layout can be repourposed as USB cable management.

Glad you’re back This Old Tony!! I have wondered how that sunglasses hold in my wife’s car worked. She forbade me from investigating when we drove the car out of the dealer’s lot, so I have only been able to marvel at and wonder about it when I am a passenger. Now I have something to tell her about her car next road trip we take. Hopefully I will be able to make the explanation last long enough so I don’t have to hear about sally married to jack where she works, blah blah blah. A double gift from your single YT! Thank you again!!

16:33 the flat one used to be used in old laptops. The PCMCIA cards. I still have the mechanism somewhere in my house, always thought it was a very cool little device. All metal, very compact (two such tray mechanisms would fit over my pinky finger (or one cm))and they worked flawlessly for almost two decades before i parted out the laptop. One other place this push latch mechanism was used, but AFAIK very briefly, was when we used to have electronic typewriters. I'm not 100% sure, i never took that one apart, but the mechanism for the floppy disk was unlike the conventional ones (push button release) and it would allow you to release the disk without pushing the button, just depressing it. I think it was a SHARP one, but eh, it's been almost twice my life so far, since i've used that machine. Yeah, this was a great episode, this is one of those mechanisms you never look at, but that have a million and one applications you'd never suspect. I guess it's the little things we miss, that make our lives easier.

Oh God that acronym is giving me flashbacks to 2004, trying to find drivers to get a Windows ME (!) laptop to connect to my college's Wifi with a PCMCIA wifi card, then giving up on that and getting a 10/100 card to plug it into the ethernet jack. Then I upgraded to a new machine with XP x64 (!!) and had the same dance all over again because there weren't 64 bit drivers for... anything.

Oh my... I'm a ballpoint pen collector, I've got more than 300 pens. What fascinates me is exactly the push mechanism! Take a look at the Swedish Ballograf pens. Their model Epoca is what got me into collecting pens, I was just hooked by its mechanism. It's a teeny bit similar to the "drunken dancing cone" at 3:52, and they give a life long warranty on the mechanism :D
