Wanted HP-35 battery cover

[John Cadick]

One of the clasps on my 35 battery cover is on its last legs. I would love to get a replacement battery cover. Anybody out there have one?

I don't know where to find it, maybe on TAS, but if I find out on the old forum, there are pictures of a simple fixing of that issue, otherwise I'll post new pics
I did it for a 67, but I think it will work on the 35 as well, despite the different position of the legs (π/2 shifted each side)
of course the best is to replace the cover, but if you dont mind so much the shape (anyway it' all inside), that kind of repair seems to be quite functional

Thanks for your response Aurelio. My problem is the the top of the slider is gone and the main body is broken close to the calculator end of the slider. I don't think that it is fixable. Maybe a little super glue, but I'd probably end up gluing the cover to the calculator. <G>

I found one at International Calculator. A bit pricey, but nothing is too good for my 35. <G>
