Missing potentiometer models

Open Ratfink opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

As Wayne reported here, the potentiometer 3D models from 4.0 are all missing in the new library. I know that all the old models made with Wings had to be discarded, but many of those old potentiometer models were made with FreeCAD, so could probably still be salvaged.

I looked into some of them

I guess few of them can be salvaged without more work

They are almost always positioned wrong and they missing parts, some of them are difficult to re map back to new file names

Potentiometer_Alps_RK09L_Single_Vertical, positioned wrong, missing metal "holder" Stepup macro, no modifications bild

Potentiometer_Omeg_PC16PU_Vertical, positioned wrong Stepup macro, no modifications bild

@Ratfink Shall we close this thread ?

@Ratfink Do you think it is worth exploring the possibility to salvage the old ones?
