    That man is able to assemble Curta without looking into plans, photos or manual? That's incredible. Thanks for the video.

    Excellent assembly skills in action. The man seems so matter of fact about putting together such a complex device. Well done sir, my hat is off to you.

    Fascinating to watch, and a precious reference for those of us that have to take theirs apart (and back together!). Thanks for making this video available.

      The old joke in the factory was they cost half as much again when purchased. That was the price of re assembly when virtually everyone took theirs apart and couldn’t get them back together

    SUPERGENIAL daß ich dieses Video gefunden habe dankedankeDANKE, habe eine Curta I, die dringend Wartung und kleine Reparatur benötigt, Du hast mein Leben gerettet (und das einer Curta I). THANK YOU!!!!
    I'm SO glad I've found this video, got a new Curta I that needs service, you saved my life (and the one of a curta)

    Dieser Herr besitzt noch immer weit mehr Fingerspitzengefühlt als die meisten hier je hatten.
    Sein Zusammenbau (wahrscheinlich nach über 40 Jahren pause) ist sehr schnell und routiniert, beeindruckend.
    Exzellente Arbeit!

    Der alte Herr; schlicht bewundernswert! Ich bekomm schon einen Krampf in den Fingern beim Zusehen- und das als trainierter Pianist mit entsprechender Geläufigkeit! Danke fürs Hochladen...! Plus grande complication!

    Ich war eigentlich neugierig, ob man sieht wie der Löschhebel eingenietet wird, weil ich den bei meiner ersetzen muss.
    Daa wird zwar nicht gezeigt, aber immerhin weiß ich jetzt, dass das Entfernen der Löscherkappe wesentlich einfacher zu sein scheint als ich dachte.
    Großartiges, ehrfurchteinflößendes Video.

    it would be awesom if you could buy a kit to make one yourself of course it would slightly have to be pre assembled or sent with the required tools and extra parts if such small parts are lost

    really with they remade these in a cheaper, streamlined version. I really want one of these.

    • @eLJaybud
      @eLJaybud Před 8 lety +2

      +Quentin “SpecialBomb” Jankosky they did but unfortunately it's called an electronic calculator. Really though it's a good novelty but not as useful as Matlab and the rest...

    • @quenjankosky7348
      @quenjankosky7348 Před 8 lety

      eLJaybud You obviously don't get the purpose of why I want one. Go talk shit somewhere else.

    • @quenjankosky7348
      @quenjankosky7348 Před 8 lety +2

      +eLJaybud Sorry about earlier, I was pissed off at myself and I should not have taken it out on you. Are we alright now?

    • @eLJaybud
      @eLJaybud Před 8 lety +1

      +Quentin “SpecialBomb” Jankosky no that's fine. You may want to be a bit more relaxed about the CZcams. I tend to reserve my claws fir when I'm provoked by fan boys. Serious engineer history isn't that realm.

    He's using jigs labeled "CURTA." I suspect he used to work in the Curta factory or 'inherited' the jigs from the factory.

    * O mais legal do CURTA é abrir a mente para poder escrever rotinas ULTRA RÁPIDAS em Linguagem Assembly para cálculos aritméticos em FIXED POINT! Como seno e cosseno!

    What a pitty the original 4:3 ratio video has been stretched to 16:9 !!! This is visible from the very first seconds, where the logo symbolizing the Curta is displayed as an oval instead of a circle.

  • @MajorAbuse
    @MajorAbuse Před 6 lety

    Pity the aspect ratio is wrong. I think VLC can view it in the correct (4:3) ratio.

  • @renatotrigueiro8601
    @renatotrigueiro8601 Před 2 lety

    Como por exemplo a derivada do seno de 0 a 15 graus em radianos... Ex: X=1,5º GRAUS=1,5*Pi/180=0,02618 em radianos e o seno=X+X*X*X/6-X*X*X*X*X/120=0,02618 com cinco casas decimais!

    Die Rechenmaschiene ist absolut genial ! Nur leider ist sie viel zu teuer.😟

  • @eLJaybud
    @eLJaybud Před 8 lety +3

    Over 30 minutes to assemble... no wonder they were so expensive.

    • @marcel911
      @marcel911 Před 8 lety +3

      +eLJaybud They cheated. Every time the camera changed, he had slightly more of it assembled.I bet it takes 90 minutes to assemble fully from scratch. Several of the parts were pre-assembled here.

    • @eLJaybud
      @eLJaybud Před 8 lety

      marcel911 I cheated and kept skipping, so even more assembly costs. Ouch.

    Clearly a most remarkable engineer .Pity the auto translate feature on you tube is unreliably rubbish. i set it to English ,and the translation is apallingly bad that is when it is not displaying some obscure East Indian language OR Arabic .

  • @LoneWolfZ
    @LoneWolfZ Před 4 lety +1

    as funny as this was to watch with the auto-generated english from german, I really wish there was an english dub.
    I also wish I had the balls to try and service my model II myself.
