OT: Looking for recommendations on 3D modeling software

 

This is off topic but the end result will be for HP products so please bear with me.

I am looking for recommendation on 3D modeling software (preferably freeware) and a company that I can then send the 3D model to?
make a battery holder clamshells.? I propose to make half clamshell pieces that would then make a complete?
battery holder by using 2 pieces that would fit together.

Thank you,
Victor

If you have any questions about 3D printers, feel free to contact me, also offlist!


We are quite happy with our RenkForce RF100v2 system after adding a part cooler and an enclosure. Enclosures are a feature where the printer house generally like to charge a lot of money, but you can build one easily from a LACK table =>


I am quite happy with my design, albeit I regret not also making the back openable to access the filament supply. Not having the printer subject to winding, and being able to heat up its den, has made my life easier and prints more constant. I think about adding a little thermo heater to heat the build chamber up faster.


Another important advice: heated beds are a bad bet. Get a Pritt gluestick...

The other was on a pole, in the yard, but it burnt during the night, and killed everything but the shop building. My main complaint is the difficulty of doing the work with one good hand.

Re: HP 1817A TDR sampling head

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hello Craig,

???? Glad to find a guy who knows about 1817A sampler. This state of the art equipment (for then time it was marketed) has fallen in the museum class but works perfectly when the rather fragile sampler diodes are in good condition. Your suggestion to use a beam lead microwave schottky diode is one of the solutions I envisaged to fix my 1817's. I also tried some very tiny microwave SMD diodes (0.3 x 0.6 mm), which are supposed to be very fast (SMS 7621-060 from Skyworks).? If I have the binocular microscope, I don't unfortunately possess the micro tweezers (clamps) necessary to manipulate the diodes and put them at the right place on the holder, and my attemps to getb them in place? and to fix them with soldering paste have failed up to now. May be beam lead diodes would be easier to handle !

??? Another solution I'll try will be to machine an new holder, fitting in place of the original one, and using an old DO34 housed Germanium point diode, which also presents very small capacitance and offset voltage. It is slightly bigger than the genuine one, but that seems workable. I recall you that the assembly is composed of the diode, a series 2.2 K resistor, and a 2 pf capacitor towards 7mm line body. The new part would fit, but electrical performances (rise time, overshoot) might be degraded !

??? Thank You anyway to help me renewing one of the most advanced equipment ever marketed by former HP firm. (joined two drawings of one of the sampling diode part - there are 2 opposed polarity diodes ).

Hi,
I have scanned Internet for some days to get drivers for these two cards (HP E1430A is an ADC, HP E1485A is a DSP).
Have scanned of course this group here too :-)
Result so far: Manual for E1430A is available, also DSCPI drivers for HP GPIB command modules.
I've just uploaded my SCPI driver collection to /g/vxi/

It has the serial uploader for E1430A as well as the GPIB version.

For E1485A I found neither manual nor software.
I've got the install/service guide pdf for the E1485C. Plus notes etc on upgrading the SPOS on that module if you don't have that already.

There was a HP 35635T?Programming Toolkit?sold on tape with these cards in the old days to be used on e.g. HP V743 HP/UX and Windows.
I managed to find a PDF of a Powerpoint presentation regarding this product but nothing else so far.

Any hints where I could get this old software (HP 35635T?Programming Toolkit ) or parts of it today?
I would give my left testicle...

We've been having discussions recently on the VintHPcom group regarding having members check through their boxes of old floppies/HDD/s/tapes to look for software to try and get as much as possible archived in safe locations for future use.

We'd be eternally grateful if anyone on this group that has such software could archive it as well.
My immediate interest evolves around E1497A/B E1437A E1485B/D E6401A E6402A and WJ-9119 :^)


Re: looking for a few knobs

 

Hi, Michael.

In my area of Southern California, we had a similar problem with mid 1960's power wiring.? We kept having outages in our neighborhood every month or so, and San Diego Gas & Electric kept band-aiding the old wiring.? Until I posted a formal complaint to the Public Utilities Commission, squeaky wheel kind of guy that I am.? That lit a fire under their chair and got us new wiring within a few months.? That was probably 4 years ago, and we haven't had an outage since.

So go ahead and file a complaint.? It worked for me and my neighbors.? Good luck!

What I find objectionable is any mention of tRump.

Quoting Dave McGuire <mcguire@...>:

If anyone has any available, I'd like to purchase the following
knobs.? My application is for a 3582A, but they were used on other
instruments.

?? 0370-2188?? "frequency mode" on the 3582A
?? 0370-3013?? "noise source level" on the 3582A

?? ...and just the little front cap for an 0370-1005, which is
probably the same as for many other knobs.? It's about 5/16" in
diameter.

?? Anybody gots?

Re: looking for a few knobs

 

Yup it gets old. I thought maybe this guy Tam had Tourettes and dismissed him as simply having a handicap,? but, is Tourettes actually a thing when using a keyboard? Now it seems that it is a political expression of being non-PC and anti liberal. Is being a nice person suddenly a "Liberal" problem in this world? Is there an ignore button on this thing?

Tam,

I find your language frequently offensive, and certainly inappropriate on this forum
More inappropriate than your language, however, are your political outbursts. Neither has any business on this forum, nor do they add any value here.
It seems you're deliberately trolling this otherwise (mostly) civil, on-topic forum, more than any other single member here, and if I were a moderator of this group, I'd have given you a time out by now.

Re: Agilent 54831M

 

Overall, the scope won't calibrate, but the two healthy channels will look calibrated after the procedure fails. The two bad channels will not work properly on the 1Meg input impedance after the failed calibration.

The failed 50ohm inputs are 99.9% due to bad input hybrids, it doesn't take much of DC to blow the input (even the 50ohm resistor is integrated). It appears there is a chinese guy on EBay, selling these hybrids (expect a chunk of PCB with the chip soldered? on it). I did not buy any and don't know anybody that did, so the risk is all yours if you decide to go for.?

Or you may want to hunt for another 54831 as a part mule, this is what I did and now have spares for the rest of my life.

Re: 8991A Service Manual?

 

Actually a better request is the Calibration Manual, 08991-90023.
They are on epay but hoping it's available elsewhere.

Anyone?

thx
