Nice, The more modern replacement parts we have for old machines the better

Very nice work Steve :) There are always those small things to fix when you are making replacement parts but that is all part of the process. Keep up with great videos :)

Nice work, mate. Love seeing new parts being produced to help us keep our beloved retro gear running. Keep it up.

Thanks for sharing! The folded part of the membrane has to be folded to make a reliabel electrical contact between the membrane and the board. That's why there is such a big contact field on that spot and not only the hole. I am very curious if there is a demand for SX-64 keyboard replacement PCB's. Because they do not deteriorate like the membranes.

Great stuff!: would appreciate knowing when the cartridge port boards are available ( beta is ok - I have the connectors to populate., my original cart port board has an intermittent electrical fault that was danaged from a poorly designed cartridge expander board)

Any updates on the keyboard PCB? I have a couple SX-64 keyboards with cracked PCBs and I would love to repair them. Thanks!

Where will this be sold? Just got a working main unit of the SX-64 missing the keyboard, thinking I'd rather just make my own than source another keyboard
