Looking for disk dumpers
As the post states, I'm looking for people from around the globe that have both the time, hardware and experience to dump old disks to d64 images. I know there are some old topics on this but I'm looking to compile a "current" list for an upcoming project.
If you have the spare time to dump disks, I just need your general location around the world to get an idea of the coverage we'll have should this idea get off the ground. I know there are a lot of people out there sitting on disks with absolutely no time to dump them so I'm hoping this may help get the Treasure Chest overflowing again ;)
Thanks!

Tools: XUM1541/XUM1541+SQR, Kryoflux, Greaseweazel and working drives.
Experienced when it comes to work with "hard to deal with", such as cleaning, rebuilding floppy images, understanding the errors before tackling them. Proper documentations and process pictures(if asked).
Yes, I also do tapes ;)
This man is a pro. And then we didn't even mention tapes.. In the tape area this man is a demigod. |

Valby/Copenhagen, Denmark.
Plenty of people from DK already, but if needed, would be happy to help out.
Have: IECHost, XUM1541, C1541 & 1541-II, possibly soon 1571 (if replacing the power supply will fix it), DC2N for tapes.
Some experience with cleaning dirty/mouldy 5,25" floppies as well (3,5" are more difficult).
Also does plenty of Amiga disk ripping, and have quite a few disk drives and ripping solutions such as Greaseweazle, Kryoflux, Drawbridge etc.
Good initiative, looking forward to be on the map, so to speak ;). |

I updated the map and also added a column for what equipment people had and filled that in if you mentioned it in your post as well as if you were able to dump tapes. I also added a notes column which I used to add your experience if you listed it in your reply.
Thanks guys! |

Added Maestro, DuncanTwain and Dymo to the map.
I hope this thread has been helpful to folks looking to get disks/tapes dumped. With postal costs at an all-time high it just makes sense to try to find capable people as close to the source as possible which was the reason I started this whole thing.
Thanks to all that have offered their time and experience here and hopefully we see some more additions to the Treasure Chest threads and the CSDb database for a long time to come!
If you have some free time and the knowledge and equipment to dump disks/tapes, drop a message here! A general location is preferable but not needed and the equipment you use for your dumping is a plus.

Thanks again! |
