HPAK 3D model repository?


 

I recently went looking - without any success - for a 3D model of a HP power button cap.? It may well be my Google-fu is off today but I really couldn't find any HP parts to speak of. Does anyone know of a collection of designs - buttons, feet, etc. - for HPAK equipment?? Tektronix and others for that matter...

Search on Thingiverse or Printables for "hp button" or "agilent button".

Thank you - I found it (and a couple other things) that I needed.

It's a long thread, but there's lots of good stuff in there.

Thanks Jared - that was *exactly* what I was hoping to find.


 

Does Thingiverse have the capacity for storing every last design of a power button that was ever used on any HPAK equipment? ;)

(The old joke being that HP designed a different power button for every individual piece of equipment that rolled off the line)

coffee -> keyboard

Ain't that the truth! Need a big disk array for all those models..

The button caps themselves aren't radically different as far as I can tell but once you get behind the front panel all bets are off.? Personally I never felt it to be a joke so much as laughing at the inconvenient truth ;-)
