parts lists

[Allan Adler]

I know there are websites that archive manuals for many different devices.
What I'm wondering is whether there are similar websites that have parts
lists for a lot of electronic devices. If one has a particular device,
one can sometimes get information from the manufacturer, but I'm talking
about sites other than manufacturers' sites.

It isn't clear exactly what you're looking for, but a "parts list" is
normally included with the manufacturer's service (or repair or
maintenance) manual. No one other than the manufacturer has any motive
to compile an exhaustive list of components.

Some people have websites that have manuals of different kinds for different
devices. So, I thought someone might think it worthwhile to have parts
lists archived at websites. One application of such archives would be to
help people who like to scavenge parts from discarded electronics, so that
they have more of an idea what to look for when they want a particular
part. But the idea goes beyond electronics. E.g. I saw a website
(http://www.hackaday.com, I think) that has among other things a home
made record player whose spindle was made out of a certain part of a
Harley Davidson motorcycle. Maybe the guy just happened to know everything
about Harley Davidson's but for someone who doesn't it would be helpful to
have a resource that let's you know, among other things, that these
motorcycles have a part with certain shape and dimensions.

If every parts manual that has ever existed were archived on the web there
wouldn't be room for the porn.
