Nice write up. Did you ever get around to making the wand?
Dan_CA:
Yes, I did make a wand and it works well and I use it often.  It also works on a newer PS2E-01 supply that senses when the wand is disconnected.  I did not post any construction details because it was fairly complicated and requires a lathe and machinist skills.  Here is a picture of the completed wand.

quadtech:
That's great, Dan. This is probably the first "recorded" fully diy wand - details/pics would be very helpful.
I guess the tip plugs in into a SMB straight connector inside the wand?

Other posts elsewhere suggest the capacitor is 270pf - so you used a 180pf in parallel with a 22uH?

Dan_CA:
Yes I used a 180pf in parallel with a 22uH as explained above.

There is no SMB connector and I do not believe that the Metcal tips mate to SMB.
Dan_CA:
Several viewers have noticed that some of my pictures have become missing or are in the wrong place.  This happened after the forum went down last year.  I don't have the time to fix this.  Here are the missing files.
