Hello PSN List:
 
I got this email from Serhan recently, and we are hoping you can help.  Do any of you have the document package on Sean-Thomas Morrissey's VBB seismometer?  I never got the package from him, but I seem to remember that some of you did.  Let us know if you could make a set of copies and mail them to Serhan.
 
Thanks!

Dear Keith;
 
Thank you very much about your interesting.
 
I have all of photographs and schematics on your web page. but it would be good when we got the Sean Thomas' plans, too. i don't know exactly what to do. so if you request that on PSN mailing list(?) it would be really good. Can you really help me about that?
 
Yours,
Serhan Baştürk

Hello:
 
It is sad that we lost Sean-Thomas.  He was an excellent source of information for us Amateur Seismologists.
 
The only documents I have are the photographs and the schematics on my web page.  I don't have any mechanical drawings of my Seismometer.  It was based loosely on Sean-Thomas's design, but built with different materials I had, so I never got the set of drawings from him.
 
If you want a copy of Sean-Thomas's drawings, I know that several people on the PSN mailing list got them from Sean-Thomas a few years ago.  Perhaps one of them would be willing to copy their set for you.  If you would like, I can request this on the mailing list for you.
 
Keith

Subject: About Leafspring Vertical Broadband Seismometer

Dear Sir;

My name is Serhan Basturk. i am 17 years old and living in Turkey /Istanbul.
i and my friend would to build an vertical seismometer. we found some informations about the A Leafspring Broadband Vertical Seismometer by Sean-Thomas Morrissey. i would to contat with him. but i heard that he died several months ago and i am very sad about that... so i contacted with Brian J. Mitchell, Professor of Geophysics Dept. of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Saint Louis University. but he said "Dear Serhan--Sean Morrissey died several months ago and nobody here is doing instrumental work. He was working only on developing a horizontal instrument.I am sorry that I cannot be of help."
then i contacted with Larry Cochrane. he told me about you. i surfed on your web pages www.bryantlabs.net/seismo.html and saw that you already built an another one. congrulations about! i hope we will same, too :) so i think that you have the copies of these plans. and i hope you can help us, sir.  
 
but i need that plans of these vertical seismometer to build a new one which belong to us. here it's very expensive to buy an seismometer and we are building for our school a seismic station. the student who are 3-4 years older than us built one lehman last year. 2-3 years older than us are working for an another at the moment. but we are in need of an vertical one. sir can you help us? if you have this plans we are ready to pay about posting and copy new plans cost. sir, there are only 9 plans at web. and Thomas-Sean wrote:"The best way to get a current set of about 20 pages of this documentation is to send me your address (or label) and 5 ea 33cent ps. I will provide the copies and an envelope."
 
but as i said we can't reach these plans. i will be waiting for your answer...
Thank you very much.


Yours Faithfully Sincerly
Serhan Basturk
