I started one years ago and have been working on it very slowly as a

I used small, modern relays as they can be bought in quantity cheaply. I
paid less than
5 cents each for mine. I've built memory out of the relays and have been
toying with using
a flip-dot type display board as a visual memory. A kind of mechanical
graphical display.

I've been bouncing around the idea of
building my own relay computer
* I have mostly inspired by the TIM project[1] and Harry Porter's Relay
Computer[2]
* I am looking at having a limited number registers like the 6502 or
6800
* the computer is going to be Harvard architecture based
I wondering have any of use done anything like this?
