Hello.
I recently acquired a PDP-8/e with a TU56 and a PC04(I think) with
reader only. I've also gotten a DEC rack, but only one set of rails
which I think are wrong and incomplete to boot. I've done some searching
on bitsavers, but I've only found partial depictions of the actual rails.
So, what I'm wondering is what does the rails for a PDP-8/e look like?
These are the ones I got (same rails, different angles):

What does the rails for a TU56 look like? I could not find any holes on
the sides, are they simply screwed in place with the holes behind the
flip-front?

And what does the rails for a PC04 look like? I found this picture over
at Mikes great corestore site:

shows part of it.
Also, the full height PDP family rack was called H960, but what was the
shorter version called, depicted here:

If you have any of the above mounting kits, I would be interested in
buying or trading. I don't have much to trade with though, mostly SGI
and Sun machines.
