The best I can offer are some 3D renders :)

I had a lot of fun with this cassette player! It ended up being just under 10k tris. Inspired by, though not exactly a one to one recreation of, Sheng Lam's Potify Cassette player

That’s an interesting cassette loading method

I’m glad this community is picking up, I want to get back into 3D modeling after having been disillusioned with it at art school twenty years ago, and this is the kind of stuff I want to use as inspiration

So damn cool! Although one though i have is why not turn the cassette 90 degrees to get something slimmer? Or would that mess with the aesthetic? I am im no way a designer.
