RE: Just repaired my first 9010a tape drive - parts available.

G -- this type of information and FS info is perfectly appropriate in this
list.
 
What basis do you have to say "is just a ploy to spam a large group of ppl
to get some sales for Art"? This seems pretty presumptive on your part.
 
How about we as a community *STOP* driving valuable resources/people away
from the hobby?
 
Thanks,
 
Bret

What "VECTOR" game/monitor does that go in?
 
I hope this FS spam does not become a regular thing on vectorlist too.. : (
Sure some ppl may use test equipment and be interested but its still barely
VECTOR related and is just a ploy to spam a large group of ppl to get some
sales for Art. Please dont let this become a habit and ruin our great source
of VECTOR game/monitor related information

Unit did rewind properly, but did not pass read or write tests.
In r/w mode, tape made a rhythmic 'clinking' sound as it moved. Cause was a
permanent dimple in the play drive wheel rubber caused by unit being in
storage for many years.

Replaced the play drive wheel (Braemar part # 800-0134-002) and while I had
the unit open, also replaced the rewind drive wheel (Braemar part #
800-0133-001). Reassembled, cleaned head with denatured alcohol and a
cotton swab, and read and write are now working properly.

Parts are available from me at my cost, plus inbound shipping, plus $3.85
outbound flat rate shipping to cover my cost on sending kits (that is $3.85
for as many kits as you want, not $3.85 per kit).
The play hub kit is $16.75, the rewind hub kit is $18.75 (these prices
include inbound shipping that Braemar is charging me) and if you are doing
more than one drive, and/or have a habit of losing little parts and clips
(don't we all), I also have the hub driver kits as well (part #
800-0132-001), with the hub spokes and lots of little washers and locking
washers, enough to replace all the little hub parts on both play and take-up
hubs, $13.75.
Please order directly from me as a response to this email; I plan on
offering these parts at a markup on eBay, so the prices will be higher. I
am selling at my cost only to vectorlist and techtool list members, and will
be marking items up on eBay and newgroup offerings.
I will also see if I can get some sort of deal on the tapes for these drives
from the factory. The factory person is friendly enough, and willing to
sell to me, but she sure isn't used to my negotiating style :)
