Re: On-line collection updated Message #4 Posted by Matthias Wehrli on 12 Dec 2011, 5:11 p.m., in response to message #1 by Keith Midson Also for me, 2-3 very nice units are in your collection. Keep them save or let me know ;)

Re: On-line collection updated Message #5 Posted by Keith Midson on 13 Dec 2011, 4:13 a.m., in response to message #4 by Matthias Wehrli Thank you Johnny, Jose and Matthias. I have two HP rarities on their way to me (thanks Juergen and Bruce!) as well as one unusual HP - so the collection is always expanding and will be continuously updated. I am also trying to find the right glass display cabinets so that I can display them at the office. At the moment they are mostly hidden in a cabinet (apart from a few items in my glass bookshelf behind my desk and my favorite HP's that stay on my desk and get daily use). Cheers, Keith Edited: 13 Dec 2011, 4:14 a.m.

Re: On-line collection updated Message #6 Posted by Dale Reed on 13 Dec 2011, 4:57 p.m., in response to message #5 by Keith Midson Keith, If you find a nice display case avaiable generally (through Internet or retail purchase and not just a one-off from some store closing), please post here. I'm looking for one as well. What I'd REALLY like to find is a low-profile wall-mount one (like a picture frame, maybe a tad deeper) that's suitable for, say, a dozen Voyagers and a couple Woodstocks. Yeah, I know, I should just go buy some Plexiglas and glue and get busy sawing and gluing. But I want it to look good... I've seen pictures of what some of you have built -- and I KNOW my fabrication skills are nowhere near what's needed to do the same! Dale

Most framing shops should be able to fabricate something like that for you.

Re: On-line collection updated Message #8 Posted by Dave Shaffer (Arizona) on 13 Dec 2011, 6:15 p.m., in response to message #6 by Dale Reed Do a google/yahoo search on "acrylic (wall) display cases" I found this . Prices are around $200 for 5 to 7 shelves.

Re: On-line collection updated Message #9 Posted by Keith Midson on 13 Dec 2011, 7:05 p.m., in response to message #6 by Dale Reed Hi Dale, Yes I will let everyone know when I find something. I've thought about IKEA display cabinets - but i'm really after something solid with some wood. I remember a similar thread a year or so ago - Katie Wasserman showed her collection in some excellent cabinets (and I can't find the thread). I was after something similar to that. I do like the acrylic display cabinets in Dave's post - that might be an easier and cheaper solution for now. Cheers, Keith

Re: On-line collection updated Message #10 Posted by Katie Wasserman on 13 Dec 2011, 10:43 p.m., in response to message #9 by Keith Midson Here's a really old thread on this topic. I should probably post some more up-to-date pictures of my collection but the cases are still the same: 2 small ones and two large ones, two sets of drawers containing manuals and accessories. I use some IKEA shelving for the large desktop machines I have (HP-9810, HP-9815, HP-46, HP-81 and a bunch of non-HP machines.) Edited: 13 Dec 2011, 10:52 p.m.

Re: On-line collection updated Message #12 Posted by Keith Midson on 16 Dec 2011, 3:27 p.m., in response to message #11 by Keith Midson I have just uploaded some quick photos of a Yokogawa-HP 21 to the collection: YHP21 and YHP21-2

Re: On-line collection updated Message #13 Posted by Juergen Keller on 16 Dec 2011, 4:43 p.m., in response to message #12 by Keith Midson You'll find some more YHP calcs on the Dentaku Museum web site; go to the HP section and scroll down a bit.
