I look forward to taking a stab at this.
I suspect there are a number of people who'd be interested in MASSBUS storage
devices (e.g. me - suddenly all those RH11's I've got are no longer boat-
anchors :-). We should try and organize an group build, to share the load.
Anyone else interested?
I am and possibly the Update computer club and some of it's members.
However, I have very little experience with making hardware. How would
we aproach this?
There are plenty of companies in the "prototype production" business; they will
make either blank printed circuit boards, or assembled boards, in small quantities. For
our purposes a group build probably counts as "small quantity". One I can think
of (and have used for blank PCBs) is PCB Pool.
Depending on the parts involved and the skill level of the consumers, it may be reasonable
to get blank boards and a parts bag and have the user assemble it -- or it may be better
to let professionals do the assembly.
