Sample DXF or DWG format schematic

[surfsup]

Does anyone have a schematic of anything drawn in an engineering software that is a file format DXF/DWG?

I have a software (CAD) but it is not for electrical design. However if someone has something, I can save a ton of work by importing that and taking snippets for resistor/pot/caps, etc and not redrawing them all...

ah, maybe I'll just bite the bullet...

Drop me an email and I can e-mail you some stuff

Here's two files you can pull some parts from for layouts and for schematics, I have been meaning to create a block library, but just haven't ever got there.

I see people upload files directly to ampgarage. How do yo do that?

very nicely drawn files! Good work.

to: surfsup,
I don't think Ampgarage accepts a dxf or dwg file uploads.

By the way, did you try JSchem2 for amp schematics? There are nice little libraries there.
But, for amp layout I still prefer to use dwg format CAD - especially where every millimeter counts.

JSchem2 can never compare to a professional programme, yet I find it generates a look and feel that is easy for others to read.
But, if you are used to the power of professional CAD, JSchem2 may be very hard on the nerves. Plus, I could not get a jsch file to upload here either!

Best,
tony

guitarmike, those are great. I emailed you the dxf of the vibrachamp I was working on (I'm done now) but it seems you have all that already.

The layouts are great. Thanks so much. Do you have anything with an octal or a tube rectifier?

I'd like to do the CAD layout of the champ I'm going to build. I can post the completed Fender Vibrachamp if anyone wants it. I haven't filled in component values yet so its easy to edit to your liking...

[guitarmike2107]

Surfsup , Can you send me that file in a earlier version DXF, I cant open it otherwise. I am only running ACAD2004

I will see what else I have that would be usefull for others. most of my parts drawings come from 3d models

I can't seem to figure out how to post a link in a phpbb message to an externally uploaded file so I emailed it to you...

guitarmike, your layout components are very cool. I know this took a lot of time to do. Very nicely done, and thanks!

Anyone have an octal tube CAD profile? I know the hole is either 1" or 1-3/16" depending on fender or belton, but I'd like the actual mounting bracket/sleeve, etc. I can't find one site that has the 2D profile of any octal. I wish I had a spare octal socket, i'd just measure it!

[surfsup]

Found the dimensions right after posting that...I'm good. I will CAD this up now.

Very nice...thanks!
Works fine in Autocad 2000i

Heres another layout base file you can use the parts from

It has the white ceramic style sockets shown, 9 pin and 8 pin

guitarmike. This is nice too! Looking at the sections, it seems someone was using a solid modeler. Had to have been! Or that is a lot of 2D detail work! I was planning to go to solids with the champ layout I did as well. If these originated from a solid, mind sharing that?

I already did the octal, etc. as per the DIY Champ Clone thread by RJ. Check the last page of that thread if you wanna see what I did for kicks...

[guitarmike2107]

Hi yes, it was all modelled in Pro-Engineer/Wildfire. I can export to IGUS if you like, that will import into most 3d solid modelling programs.
