Antique radio Antique TV Electronic Repair
I created a chassis stand that could hold any antique radio or TV chassis that I would ever work on. From EH Scott Philharmonics to smaller radios to monster 12" TV's, and everything in between. The stand handles an 80 pound set with no effort. I also made an adapter for rack mounted sets like the Hallicrafters SX-28 or test equipment.
Stand width is easily adjusted and uses a unique clamping system for those hard to hold sets. I incorporated a clutch to provide continuous smooth rotation of chassis without constant loosening and tightening at the pivot point, and I have no hard stops making it infinitely adjustable.

WoW!!! Would love to build this, all I need a metal lathe, a metal ban saw, a milling machine, 2 years of collage to learn how to use all those without losing a finger or 6 years working on other projects to gain the skill and a shop to hold it all in. I will have to pass the first test and that is get permission from the wife to set this all up ;)

Found you on Mr. Carlson’s Lab Patreon, most excellent work. I’d certainly pay for plans and make a 3D printed version. Love the design, style and functionality. I’d scale it down by 50%, don’t need the rack mount capability, at least for today. Might be time to take my CAD skills up a notch and give it a go myself. Funny thing, been in tech all 30 years of my career, worked for Danly Die Set / Danly/Komatsu Machine early in my career supporting CAD engineer computers and never learned how to use it. 40 year woodworker, I’ve tried working metal, it’s just not for me. Bought a mill, lathe, band saw, the whole 9. Got 2 years in and realized how much I’ve gotten used to the properties of wood, namely movement, expansion & contraction based on temp and humidity. Working metal that doesn’t do that sent my brain on a spin. But, it’s that foray into metal working that got me back into electronics after not touching them for 30 years, so it wasn’t all in vain, I guess. What did amaze me was how well that tooling held its value, I made back 90% of what I put into it, not many other hobbies that can claim that.

A minor point, but standard rack rails are normally tapped 10-32. 10-24 is used, but not very often.
@thermionic_emission
@thermionic_emission 2 года назад
I had a box of 10-24 pan head screws, that is why it is that pitch thread. It really makes no difference to the item being mounted.
@kfourom
@kfourom 2 года назад
Some old broadcast racks made by GKM and sold by RCA used 12-24.
@EPaulIII
@EPaulIII 2 года назад
@@kfourom Yes, I have seen them. And some manufacturers "chickened out" and went to using the clip on style of sheet metal nut that would accept either 10-32 or 10-24. And you could force a 12-24 screw into them. I do not think there is any real standard that covers more than one segment of the electronic industry, but as I said above, 10-32 is as close to that as you can come. This is not a big thing unless you are in a large facility with more than one or two equipment racks - as I often found myself. Then you are interested in just having one type of "rack mounting" screw. I usually purchased them in boxes of 1000. If anyone sent me a rack mounting rail with any other thread, it went back. Every facility has it's share of goons who will make the screw they happen to have in their hand FIT. No matter what. So I hate to see any other size of rack mounting screw being used. Too much of that already.

If you're not going to make these, how about releasing (or selling) the CAD files. With modification, this could be adapted to be 3D printed (albeit with less load capacity).

@thermionic_emission
@thermionic_emission 2 года назад
I personally prefer Hickok, but they can be expensive. There are other brands that are decent and a lot less money like Jackson, B&K, and a few others. After testing your tubes for shorts, the best test is if the tube works in the radio or TV.
