1. Looking for TS2068 Twister Board
juanjosevelez · 02 Jul 2014 19:41:41 -
Hello all!
I just got a TS2068 and I am playing with it. Great piece or hardware!
Been searching info here and there, and I am about to make the switchable EPROM mod from Richard. But I want *more*.
I am after a Twister Board, but as of today, no luck on finding one for sale, many posts and websites had this available in 2010, so the expected is that today, these batches already sold out.
So, I want to know if anyone here has one for sale, or can point me in the right direction so I can find one.
I have the schematics, but I am afraid making one is beyond my abilities.
So, here I am, asking the experts. Thanks a lot in advance for any info about this!

Twistre board you have all the files you need in the diles deom the group.
To make the board try OSH Park, they do pcbs in low number with high quality and average prices...

Oscar

Hi, Have you succeeded on the EPROM mod?
I didn't.... need to exchange some experiences, since Mr. Atkinson doesn't

Hi, I am doing my best to keep up with this mailing list, although I am working on other projects at the moment. When I get back to TS2068 I will be finishing off the internal 128K mod and power supply improvements. Meanwhile someone else is working on an external 128K mod which may be of interest.

Hi there Juan jose.
Sorry about the wrong typing...blame iPad, I will write it all again.
The twisterBoard, if you can not fid any pcb ready(the members build some but that was a long time ago, almos 10 years from now), you can get the files to make one in the files from these group here in Yahoo(by Bruno Florindo).
Than you can send these files to make the pcb with OSH Park(https://oshpark.com/). They do quality pcb with very low prices and low number(I think is 3 the minimum). And very fast delivery.
As the twister board is very easy to solder, it has 3to4 components only, you will have your twister board ready in a week, does not need to be a master in solder skills to make one...I buld my own without any help...
Regards,
Oscar

Thanks you all for the fast response about this!
Ok then, I already contacted Watchara to buy a board from him (her?), thanks!
And I have a second option anyway, the info from Oscar on OSH Park, thanks a lot for that info too, I had no idea I could do that.
Oh and Mario Moreira, I am in the process of making the switchable ROM mod, it's not done yet. I hope it works! And glad to see Richard replied here.
Thanks again guys!
