It’s hard enough to find a mine, but to find a mine with a Honeywell
316…that might be unrealistic.
But seriously folks… I know there is a 316 at the md technology museum in
hunt valley. There may be one in Europe.
Very rare

I have the manuals and related materials including the manual with the
"Kitchen Computer" on the cover.

I'd like to find a 516. I used one in the military and really liked the machine.
I think I still remember the assembly language.

That's the machine that ran the Senster "cybernetic sculpture" at the
Evoluon in Eindhoven, right? That has been restored but apparently not with the original
software. I have been wondering if that code could be run on a simulator and get it to
work right. The listings still exist, as do at least some of the schematics for the
sensor and motion control electronics.

You're talking about simulating a realtime application, and that would
require exceptionally precise timing from the host to match the original
hardware. I'm not saying that it can't be done but I wouldn't expect to be
able to just put the code into SIMH, build an interface board out of a
Raspberry Pi or whatever, and plug it into the mechanical controls. Also
FWIW Wikipedia says that it was an H416, but I'm not familiar with that
model line at all so I have no idea what the difference between that and an
H316 would be.
