+Ksarul Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 I've bought from @MacRoriein the past--I've never had any problem with his work, or his willingness to identify the sources for hardware he makes that was designed by others. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted July 20, 2020 Author Share Posted July 20, 2020 I'm sure he's good if ArcadeShopper carries his stuff. I never knew who he was, I'm glad he stepped up and told me who he was, I never knew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majestyx Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I bought an FG99 from him through ebay last year, although I ended up ruining the manual that came with it by accidentally tipping over a water bottle that landed on it ? I am very pleased with my purchase so just wanted to show my support for MacRorie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atrax27407 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I did one of those "spur of the moment" Ebay searches. This time for some Avery 4241 pin-feed, 3.5" disk labels. After not being able to find them for a couple of years, I found a vendor that had A BOX in stock and I was able to snag it for a few cents over $12. That will keep me going for quite some time with the hundred or so that I currently have to work with. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atrax27407 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 I have a box of 3-1/2 X 15/16 that are really old and the adhesive has degraded enough to make them largely useless. I use them for EPROM labels and I guess I'm going to have to pitch the lot - about 2,000 of them. However, I have several boxes of good labels of various larger sizes that I can cut to size and use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to buy 24 boxes of 5000 at the Costco by the Portland Airport every few weeks. Back before everybody and their brother had a computer and printer, it was like a licen$e to print money. I was truly sad to see printers come down in price, because after only a couple of years most of that side-business dried up. It was great while it lasted though!

Rather than pitching them, I think I would "soak" them in a vapor tank, filled with a nice smelling VoC, like say-- French Vanilla diffuser oil. (or some other fragrance.) Basically, it's just a sealed tank with a wetted cloth with your fravorite concentrated diffuser fragrance, and then the box of labels just sitting in there chilling out with it for a week or two. Diffusion equilibrium will cause the dried out adhesive to absorb the VoCs emitted by the wetted cloth, and become tacky again. They will also be nice smelling, if a bit strongly so. Whatever carrier they use in that stuff is strong enough to gooify laser toner, so it should be good enough for adhesive labels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Ksarul Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Michael Weiand's FIG Forth also came as a cartridge with associated screens on disk at a later point in time (I think it was either V1.2 or V2.0). I think I may have one of the cartridges in my collection. . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrhodes Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Went to purchase a second speech synthesizer for my other TI, could not believe the price. No way am paying $100+ for it. Of coarse though, it was a NOS one, with box and manual. All the other synthesizers I found were bundled with $120+ consoles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
