TTI Thurlby Thandar TSX3510 35v 10amp PSU
Have to say TTI have the best customer support and so cheap for spare parts.

Hmm... I have a handful of Thurlby PSUs here - mostly PL320s and a TS-something somewhere. I quite like them, although the earlier PL320s are a mess inside and not exactly easy to work on.
BUT, given that they wanted £35 for a service manual - which would have cost them nothing to email as a PDF - I can't agree with your comments about support. Perhaps they've improved since then (that was 3 or 4 years back).

They seem great to talk to over the phone for advice and also for parts, never asked for a schematic as the companies I worked for already had them from TTi, that's annoying about the schematic |O I will ask them when I call next to see if they will email one or still charge!
Are you parting with any of your Thurlby gear, I have a bit of a fetish for it :-DD

I made this one following the LM317 typical application circuit. I added a small volt/amp panel meter to it, voltage adjust knob, and two banana jacks. On the back is a DC input from a 12v wall wart and power switch. I just ruined the display while I was trying to calibrate the volt meter. :(
I'm working on another one right now that has digital control and current limiting.
