26, Chamberlain Rd., Llandaff North, Cardiff. CF4 2LX 16th July, 1996. Dear Gus, Many thanks for the latest EUG disc which has spawned this little missive. I notice some discussion on disc drive power supplies and as I have been involved in making up some fairly recently I thought I'd throw my two-pennyworth in for members interest. I have over the last year fitted out a few kids (mainly family relations) with a mixture of second-hand Beebs & Elks in order that their Mums can do a bit of pre-school and nursery education with them. This entailed using 5.25", 40/80T drives, again second-hand types obtained from scouring the pages of Micro Mart. To keep everything as flexible as possible I endeavoured to make all the drives usable on both the Beebs own 6-pin power socket and the made-up power supplies if used with the Elks. Rather than potch about making my own PSU I bought an SMPSU from Greenweld for `3.95 and bunged it into a Maplin case bought for `3.19. Most of the other bits and pieces came out of the junk box, so a fairly good spec supply resulted for less than a tenner. Obviously a bit of drilling and filing was needed on the case, but each PSU only took about an hour to assemble. One added bonus is that these supplies have a 120/240V tap. For those interested I list below the relevant details:- 1 x Astec SMPSU SO15-3UO 12v 2A, 5V 2A, -12V 0.3A, Cat. No. Z5958 `3.95 from Greenweld Electronic Components, 27, Park Rd., Southampton. SO15 3UO 1 x Alu Case 152 x 114 x 76 Type AB31, Cat. No. XB69A `3.19 from Maplin. For those wishing to make a really pro. job a 12V miniture fan can also be purchased from Greenweld (Cat No. Z3855) and run off the -12V supply. These will raise the outlay another `3 though and would require some additional drilling of the case to make some kind of grill. The Beeb DD power sockets are now causing some difficulty in procuring and, although I have found some suppliers, the prices have been sky-high. As I was making up a batch of these PSUs I found it worth while ordering half-a-dozen of both the male and female types from Farnel Electronics Components. The appropriate crimp connectors have to be ordered separately. Farnel are reputed to deal with the Trade only, but I have not had any problems, if a large enough order is made on them. The details are as follows:- Crimp Power Connector 6-way (BBC) Plug Pt. No. 148-081 - 0.221p each Crimp Power Connector 6-way (BBC) Skt Pt. No. 148-082 - 0.215p each Contact Pins for Crimp Connector (10-pack) No. 149-086 - 0.745p p.p Contact skts for Crimp Connector (10-pack) No. 149-088 - 0.719p p.p (plus VAT on these prices) from Farnel Electronic Components Ltd. Canal Rd., Leeds, LS12 2TU As Greenweld deal mainly in surplus etc. stuff it is advisable to check their stock before ordering (Tel. 01703 236363 - Fax 236307). Also, I have found in the past, that their bargain lists include some useful Acorn items. Like most firms their appreciation of the Acorn market is nil and thus their prices on Acorn surplus goods tend to be almost at the give-away level. Elk PSUs for `3, Arc mice `4, 40T DD `5 are some of the examples I have purchased over the years. I trust this will be of interest to EUG members and worth a little slot in the next issue. Cheers, (D.E. WILLIAMS) Mr. G. Donnachaidh. 25, Bertie Rd., Southsea, Hants. PO4 8JX PS. I still do these items using Pipedream and use its VIEW save utility - Does this cause you any problems. NO
