I would like to contact anyone who worked at Dumas and find out if the vacuform bucks could be bought, if anyone can point me towards a contact please let me know.

If not, I may start getting model kits and molding the vacuform components to make new mastermolds to create my own vacuform bucks and make clones of these components.

As for the laser cut components, I could scan them while they're still in the sheets to make some laser cutter files.

Im not promising I will do these ideas for sure as it'd take a lot of time, however the plans and instructions i can easily scan and share here. I will definitely be doing that.

If you are lucky new old test equipment works just fine when you get it (or at least is broken in a sonically interesting and unique way)

Being as this equipment can be a few decades old they will inevitably need repair and/or calibration.

However that can be expensive to pay to have done, and thats if you can find anyone who knows how to work on antiquated equipment.

I've been documenting repairs that I have been doing in the form of tutorials so i can look back to it if I need to do those repairs again, so if there is any interest in repair tutorials please let me know.
