Hi guys,
I'm working on an 8" floppy drive from Siemens. The pushbutton on the
front access handle has a broken catch/latch that would hold the drive
closed. Anybody in the States with a spare from a donor drive? This is
the bit you push to open the drive and has a light in it (I don't need the
light).
I'll repair this one if I can. It's thin plastic, but I might be able to
reinforce it with some thin (soda can) sheet metal and epoxy. Before I
monkey with it, I'd like to get some life experience in this area from you
guys.
And Mr. Bill has been on my mind. It's been 6 years and small change since
he passed. Miss that guy.
Thanks,
Bob (out in New Mexico)
