New HP-41 Calculator Stand

[rprosperi]

The 75 (approx 10" x 5" x 1") works fine on the stand itself; although much wider than a 71B, it is stable and doesn't seem to slide much even though it's rubber feet are outside the dimensions of the stand. The 75C/D is rather hefty and its weight is a positive in this case as it keeps it stable.

But with the PIL-Box installed in one of the pockets, the back of the 75 rests on the top edge of the PIL-Box, with nothing supporting the other side. As the PIL-Box is a few inches wide it is still somewhat stable, however the 2 most frequently used keys on the 75, the [Attn] key and [RTN] key, are on the extreme left and right of the 75's keyboard respectively and the 75's body rocks to the side where that key is pressed.

I think it's not pragmatic to make a case the full width of the 75, as that would use probably twice as much material, however it might make sense to increase the angle and height of the inclined back such that extension of that plane would clear the top of the PIL-Box case.

I can send measurements, however one of my 75C's is willing to do some traveling so I can send it to you for measurements and 'fitting' if that helps.

But first - are there folks here interested in and would buy an HP-75 Stand? If so, please reply with a short message confirming your interest.

There's no point if there's not enough interest.
