Very nice story and absolutely the right decision. The main intention of the LP circuit was still the repair of a defective Woodstock calculator. Keeping an original working machine alive is highly appreciated. But what if there are no defective Woodstocks any more out there? The LP circuit will be buried in oblivion.

I was very slow in delivering, because all boards have been sent back to the manufacturer in mid december for professionally soldering the processor. They returned the day before christmas. But I didn't have time to finish them until this week. Since a few days all LP circuit orders have been sent to the "customers". I hope the surgery will be successful for all and I'm eager to get feedback about some possible difficulties and hopefully all successes.

BTW the LP source code can be downloaded from my website.

Which means that they will be destroyed when the screws underneath need to be accessed. Has anyone come up with something to replace those feet with?

My experience is that about 10-20 % of the rubber feet mutated to chewing gum. Perhaps it depends on temperature or humidity during storage? Horst Hoffmann successfully used some shoe heel rubber as a replacement, which can be found in the same or similar beige color.
