[cctalk] Re: seeking: vme chassis, in seattle

æstrid, my institution is disposing of what I think is a VME chassis here in San Antonio. That is not particularly accessible by Seattle transit, but if you are willing and able to pay for shipping I think we can arrange to get it to you instead of our dumpster. The unit has no power supply (room for two) and is missing most of its close-out panels. I think it’s mostly just a box and rack-mount rails, but it does have what looks to me like a VME backplane in it. It’s heavy and oversized for just the VME cards - maybe an 8U rack mount box? At least 18” tall. So shipping may not be a reasonable thing, I don’t know. Let me know if you are interested, and I think I can get photos of it tomorrow or today. - Mark 210-522-6025 office On Oct 11, 2022, at 5:24 PM, æstrid smith via cctalk <cctalk@classiccmp.org<mailto:cctalk@classiccmp.org>> wrote: [EXTERNAL EMAIL] hi folks, i'm looking for a vme chassis. i have a we 321sb vme cpu card (derivative of a 3b2) and it wants to run! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:3b2-vme.jpg not super picky about the details but if it matches aesthetically that would be neat. should be functional, i'd rather not start another electronics project right now. also interested in peripheral cards. ideally, somewhere in seattle that's reasonably accessible by transit, or if you're willing to ship that would work too. thanks! -- æstrid smith (she/her) =<[ c y b e r ]>= antique telephone collectors association member #4870
