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
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!
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.
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)
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!
+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...
+Quentin “SpecialBomb” Jankosky no that's fine. You may want to be a bit more relaxed about the UA-cam. I tend to reserve my claws fir when I'm provoked by fan boys. Serious engineer history isn't that realm.
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
* 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!
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!
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.
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.
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 .
+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.
Someone please help me i took mine apart and i cant put it back together!!!! i am really pissed off and i am about to pay someone 500 dollars to put it back together.
That man is able to assemble Curta without looking into plans, photos or manual? That's incredible. Thanks for the video.

I am lost for words in amazement
really with they remade these in a cheaper, streamlined version. I really want one of these.
+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...
eLJaybud You obviously don't get the purpose of why I want one. Go talk shit somewhere else.
+eLJaybud Sorry about earlier, I was pissed off at myself and I should not have taken it out on you. Are we alright now?
+Quentin “SpecialBomb” Jankosky no that's fine. You may want to be a bit more relaxed about the UA-cam. I tend to reserve my claws fir when I'm provoked by fan boys. Serious engineer history isn't that realm.
Everybody calm down. One of you shouldn’t shit talk and the other should just save up and get a real one.

I cannot understand a word of what he is saying, but I can guess what he does, trial and error, very patient and i he does it very very good ! ! !
Amazing! I wonder how many Curtas this man has assembled.
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

the forever assembly, lol still awsome
He's using jigs labeled "CURTA." I suspect he used to work in the Curta factory or 'inherited' the jigs from the factory.
Excellent presentation. Clear assembly. I wonder how long it takes to set up his desk with all the parts carefully positioned?!
Shaking hands create precision art
Then he found out he'd forgotten to install the main gear, and he had to start all over.
Interesante 🇭🇳
Aplicações: Computação gráfica, demo scenes e jogos com aritmética ULTRA VELOZ de ponto fixo em microprocessadores de 8 bits como o Z80
I wish someone sold replica DYI sets of the CURTA Type II. This is better than LEGO for me.
No Loctite?
Pity the aspect ratio is wrong. I think VLC can view it in the correct (4:3) ratio.
Warum sieht das so futuristisch aus??
Where can I buy?

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

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

marcel911 I cheated and kept skipping, so even more assembly costs. Ouch.
Much more than 30 minutes , this video has cuts !!!!
And me only try to use 😅
Kein öl??
He applied it with a wire from the bottle.
bissl arg unsicher, der Gute.
patience of steal
Someone please help me i took mine apart and i cant put it back together!!!! i am really pissed off and i am about to pay someone 500 dollars to put it back together.
What where you thinking?
Steel, even.
M.L
Is it complete? A mean, no missing pieces?
