FOUND ONE! And cheap too! I should have it in a couple of weeks, a month at the latest. That wipes out what little I was trying to save for a 100 to 140 diskette filer. Such is life.
Did some work on the Lobo drive that was given to me a couple of weeks back. I put in a write-protect override switch. Got a disk that has no write enable notch and don't want to chop a notch in it? No problem. Flip the switch from 'Protect' to 'Write' and as far as the drive is concerned there's a notch there and the disk can be used like any other disk. Just gotta remember to flip the switch back to 'Protect' when I'm done. I cleaned the read/write head while I had the drive opened up.
Only work I did on the layout was to move things around so I could find the tools I needed to work on the disk drive. I did work on a loco. One of the GP40's that got knocked over had part of one handrail knocked out. I took the time to apply a little CA and put it back in place.
Looks like it's time to call it a night. See y'all tomorrow.
Now that's a BIG wrench!
