I've had a run of 25 PCBs made, they arrived today, and now they need to be stuffed and soldered. This takes a while as I have to do it by hand. So everyone who contacted me, I'll email you when I've got yours ready, and the store is open now if anyone else needs one.

Wonderful, thank you for taking the time to get them made up.

Okay, do you have a price and will you be able to test the boards before you ship them?

As I have an old 75 Jennings machine and the board has be rework and in real bad shape.
The machine tries to work but won't make a complete cycle.

Thank you
Dave

I'll do them for $100 for now but reserve the right to increase the price in future, since making them by hand is very time consuming. I paid someone else to build the previous batch, but he's not available any more. I do test them, yes. I have a standard Jennings 400 that I keep around for that very purpose.

I apologize for the delay, but I was too busy to work on them until recently. I should have six finished at the weekend.

Would it be possible to post a picture of the finished product?
Also, what would be your preferred means of payment?

Of course. For payment, I prefer Paypal. The picture bears a curious resemblance to the one at the beginning of this thread.

K. I have boards ready for three people - a 3 line and a 5 line star jackpot for DM, what looks like a 3 line 1-2-3 bar for DL, and two 5 line 1-2-3 bar for TK.

If I missed anyone, drop me an email to petehand at gmail.com

I built up a few extra, so the next person who wanders into this thread looking for one is in luck.

Your board may be recoverable, although it looks as if some of the edge fingers have been repaired before - the bottom four pads in the top picture look as if someone's been at them with a soldering iron. Those are ground pins. If they can be cleaned up and maybe a piece of copper tape applied to restore them, and none of the other tracks are corroded you may be in luck. The battery is trash - those nicads are only good for ten years and it's more than 40. You can try replacing them with a 3 cell cordless phone battery, but make sure it's a NiCd and not a NiMH. The charging circuit on the board will kill a NiMH in a few weeks.

I think I may be the only source of replacement boards now. There is, or was, someone else offering refurbished original boards but I don't know if he's still in business. I have several of the old boards, and my complete lack of success getting any of the damn things to work inspired me to design a new one.

Actually, reviewing the pictures again, that looks like a 4 cell battery. You should be able to count the cells from the bulges in the plastic. Get something with the same number of cells. But wait - the board doesn't need the battery to run the game, only to remember its state. Before you waste your time and money on a battery, make sure the board works.
