Did a recording session with Heartland Marimba Quartet last weekend of my piece “Exajoule” and here are a few snippets of it! #music #newmusic #marimba #percussion #electronics

Does anyone know what this tool is called, and more importantly: where can I get a new one?

It’s a simple yet super useful tool for poking around while soldering things. Made out of some high-heat plastic, not sure what kind.

It says “Harris - Dracon Division” and “Camarillo, California” on it, but nothing else.

Been a while since I had/took time to continue with the TI-99/4A restoration.

But today, at least, I got to the point where the initial cleanup and due diligence checks were done and it was reasonable to actually fire it up with it's original PSU.

It boots, at least! 🤓​
