Thank you for the welcome. I don't think my bank balance will feel the same however ( or my wife for that matter)

In terms of slide rule replacement, is this an issue sourcing the parts - is NOS available readily, or NS for that matter? I assume crystals is readily available?

Plexi's are readily available, you need the 'sternkreuz M386' or M384 , depending on size

Siderule rings require searching , they are sometimes offered on Ebay
