Yes, but then I would just pay the $75 shipping to Canada for a $7usd part. I'm too cheap for that! ha! For now I have a grinder, and several remaining fingers...

oh, i was going for a solid lump of 1/8" to 3/16" and attach a thinner wing or 'spreader' to transfer heat away from the solid lump. Vaguely similar to the original parts - but i could go across and into the old drive bay as it is mostly empty now (w/ a solid state drive). Pack in 30 lbs or so...

Maybe you are right. Would you use paste between the block and the spreader? I won't be able to seam weld those together so there will not be good thermal transfer. Regarding cost... I have much scrap material so cost is not an issue. But copper may oxidize faster. I'll post back when it's done...

I was re-using the original pad. I will be cutting a chunk of Alu or Copper and adding a wing to transfer the width of the case. Jointing the parts would be easier with copper so that will probably be the way to go. Give the block a good polish and then use new paste, oh yes, and screw it...

Well that was interesting, using the app while idling, when measuring the heatsink temperature at 90f/33c the processor was reporting 130f/54c.

Wow, great resource, thanks.

Phipli, Thanks, yes I will put Gauge pro on and test it with that. Hope it runs on OS9. And I can chop a piece of 1/4 inch aluminium if I can squeeze that below the keyboard.

I was resurrecting an old Lombard last week that was missing a few bits... all went well but the heat was gone and I couldn't find a replacement down in the basement. I have a feeling there is one down there some where so I am loath to go to the bay and spend just yet. I cut a plate of mild...

Thanks, Action, It is up and has a steady pwr. LED now but I have no recognition in the aLink or Bridge LED's. Do you use a driver with your unit? What do you use it with? I suppose my unit may be toast but I will try to get some action through it for a while more. Thanks again for your...

Kensington Turbo Mouse! Worked like a charm for me from the first time I used an auction $5 unit I purchased and have owned a dozen or so over the years. Good solid products with solid easy to obtain software. The bigger the heavier ball the better! Also you can substitute the balls on the old...

Does anyone have info on the power supply requirements for a Sonic Sysems 'MicroPrint' Network/Din Adapter? I need Voltage, AC or DC and is ground shield or pin? Thanks For Looking! Simon

Hello all, I am pleased to be a new member of your forum, actually a re-born 68K member (was a member years back, got lost, and now here I am again). and I hope that I can get a hand with a problem. I had 2 SE30's which I upgraded and got running w/ 80megs each and 10 baseT prior to storing...
