Broken tubes for 3D Modelling

[JPS64]

Who can me provide broken tubes for Eagle3D modelling?

Dang, I could have sent you a big box back when I was testing a bunch of tubes I got from a TV repair shop last year. I discarded all the bad ones about a year ago.

Nice looking models.

switchip from povray to Eagle/Sketchup, I have the same wish.

Can someone supply broken tubes for 3D modelling?

Nice models.

I have some duds, but probably not the ones you are looking for. It would help if you could make a list.

I have some 6C33.
Do you use 3D Scanner to get these perfect tube images?

Hello @FullRangeMan,

no scanner, my wife with caliper and SolidWorks!

Are you interested in European B9A TV tubes?
Might have some ECC83 etc as well...

 

[Heffa]

Will you release the models for others to use as well?
Where can I find them?

 

[hidnplayr]

I have ECC88 (close to 6DJ8) and PL504 available.

 

[JPS64]

I´ve a lot of 3D tube models.

Also, high quality noval, octal and UX4 tube sockets are available as STEP datas (if STEP then all other file format are simply to generate).

Yes, definitively, the models would be available for the DIY community but still waiting for broken tubes.

I´m wondering that only a few persons are in 3D modeling!

Thanks @hidnplayer, thinking shipping costs more then new tube, merci quand même!

I´ve four PSVANE 211 spare! VT52 still available! Give a try.

Still searching for Teflon manufacturer for custom 211/845 socket (using redsock connectors).

Which graphics program are you using?

 

[JPS64]

SketchUP

 

[lisoformio]

SketchUp has that nice 3D model for 211s vacuum tubes?

 

[JPS64]

in my library, yes! and a lot more!
JP

 

[lisoformio]

Is it a library available from where?

 

[JPS64]

Indeed, but Tamura STU-001 discontinued!

Or really hard to find and buy (perhaps directly from Japan for 700$ pair without shipping).
