Dave,
I will look in my basement. I have a SDK-85 and SDK-86 (both fully
working 4 years ago). I think I have some manuals with them.

Yesterday I got a SDK-86 as a gift from a
friend.
It was well used, and stored in a damp and dirty place. I
disassembled mostly of it, washed the board, disassembled the keys,
washed the keycaps, and it is looking like new :o) I'm building a page
about that, but I'd like to ask some questions...
- What documentation came with it? And what is avaiable? I have the
9800697/698/699 manuals avaiable on bitsavers, but is there something
else?
- Can I link the documents on bitsavers on my page? I don't have
that much space on my server and, although I like to keep a duplicate
copy of the documents online, I just can't at this moment.
- In the kit, what kind of sockets came with it? I see most sockets
are Texas Instruments, but some are made by another company (and I know
how unreliably they are). Should I change all the TI sockets to turned
pin ones, or can I keep than and change only the gray ones I know that
will cause me problems?
Photos (and the page as soon as I finish rebuilding it) at

Nice! These are cool boards. I have an SDK-85, SDK-86, and
(unbuilt) SDK-51. I'd love to get the 8080 version, but they are
pretty scarce.
Man that board was dirty when you got it. But better a dirty board
than no board!
Is that the corner support of a RepRap Mendel that I see in photo
#5? ;)
