Replacement Feet for Tektronix 465, 465B, 466, 468, 475 and 475A Oscilloscopes

I completed the design yesterday and started making the replacement rear feet for Tektronix 465, 465B, 466, 468, 475 and 475A Oscilloscopes. These feet are replicates of the original very hard rubber feet used by Tektronix. The original feet tend to get very brittle with age and break easily.

I manufacture replacement feet using ABS plastic and a 3D printer. ABS is very strong. It is also more rigid than the original material. I took the material into consideration when designing these feet, ensuring the power cord appropriately "snaps" in place as it wraps around them.

I uploaded additional pictures in the Photos section under "3D Printed Parts." All feet will be printed in black. However, other colors are available if desired.

Please contact me if you would like to purchase new feet for your scope.

Thank you,
Tim
 

Hi? Tim
I could be interested in some of the feet, which look excellent and the handle covers
for the 400 series scopes.
Can you let me know the price, and will you ship to Ireland. Shipping charges ?
Many thanks
Regards

Hi Benny,
I'm interested in replacing the rear feet on my 'ol Tektronics 475. Do you still print them? Price on 4?
Thanks

Hi Tim,

so how much are you looking for a set?

Thanks

I, too, am interested in buying a set for my 465.

Tim’s original post is from 13 years ago, back on the Yahoo group list. I wonder if he is even still subscribed to the new groups.io list.

I found several sellers of reproduction feet on eBay. I bought some Tek 454 feet from eBay seller cats2pdx. He lists Tek 465 feet as well:
