Should I bother? HP-34C in rough shape

There also is a datasheet with the exact dimensions, e.g. the thickness (1,2 mm). But I doubt they will sell you a single piece of this. Maybe you can build something similar yourself.

Digikey will sell you just one (with a handling charge of course) https://www.digikey.co.uk/product-detail...ND/2342488

Mouser too:

Of course if you're ordering along with other stuff and get it over their threshold you'll pay no handling charge.... (maybe get someone who uses them a lot to order one for you )

I'm waiting myself to build an order up past £33 so I can add some part 181 AAA spring terminals for that Sharp pocket computer I received with corroded terminals
