Hi
I am taking a class in cnc machining. I am able to do a project on my own for class. I have a Imp trade stimulator with no back door. I would like to try to machine a replacement door. Does any one know where I can get the dimensions for this part?
Thanks,
Robin

Do you only want height and width? the back door is not flat if you want I can post pictures tomorow and you can let me know the measurements you want.

Hi Robin,
I found a rear view picture on eBay. As you can see this is a casting not a flat panel.

Hi Robin,
If I may........I would like to make a suggestion on your project to make a back door for the Groetchen IMP trade stimulator. Ok here goes......If you are planning to make a door, why not make a door that could be used as a pattern to cast more doors. There is a big need for doors for this trade stimulator as I see it. What you would have to do is, make a door a little larger in size to compensate for shrinkage when the door is cast. I am sure, that there are many collectors that would appreciate your effort.
Well I have put in my 2 cents worth. Have a "GREAT" day!
