I think I should have set a contamination level! If you can write your name in the dust, do clean it. Otherwise a computer "duster can" should be good enough.
And be real careful with the disk drive. Also, Dave and Steve got the bulb in series right-on. Solid state device faults will ~always~ protect the fuse (by melting the transistors). And it's hard to crank back a variac fast enough ;-) My high school parttime job was in an electric motor repair shop. We had a big plywood "test board" loaded with knife switches, fuses, and light bulbs, made even me look like I knew what I was doing. I think knife switches aren't even legal to own now! -larry --- larry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Mike, > > if it is really construction, and the dust is drywall > dust, it really needs to be removed. especially if the > equipment could later be exposed to any type of > humidity.
