-DIY Flash Cart Question-
When looking for compatible chips to the two chips mentioned in Reiner Ziegler's research (AM29F032B-xxEx and AM29F032B-xxSD) do you look for chips with the same specs then wire to the appropriate pins (cross referencing both the chips data sheets)?

I guess I am late to request one "complete and ready to go kit", right?

In case anyone is wondering, the files have been sent away. I am still waiting on them to be audited by the staff.

Still waiting on your response to the PM. 
I have the second board I ordered for myself which could be yours, but I need to know how many of the components to order from Mouser.

Boards are already being shipped to me! That was faster than expected! I can't wait to share photos.
Unfortunately, Mouser emptied my cart and saved carts! WTF? It will only take me 10 more minutes to build it back up, but WTF?
Also as of Friday, I am the proud owner of one of this:
Now I just have to clean my desk...

Nice! Stupid question though, is that a heat gun on the left?

Yes it is. I may use it while populating some boards since I am purchins solder paste. I have always used solder wire, so we'll see how it goes.
Both the gun and iron have pot-controlled temperatures and LED readouts.

I am actually going to send away a board that I designed (someone else programmed it) which accepts an SD card and emulated a floppy drive. I will be loading games from SD in no time.

Interested to know how the solder paste works. I too have always used wire. I saw someone use a toaster oven as a reflow oven then just clean it up after. If that makes smt soldering that easy, holy cow my life is complete.

This video is very long, but very useful. I may make one just like it if I can borrow the GF's camera.

How well does it work, what is the max capacity accepted, can you split the SD into multiple disks, how much for me to get in on this? Do you mind sharing any more details? I have 6 IIes of my own that need more love. I really want to get an uthernet card eventually, somehow. I need to get a cffa300 this time around, but I never have money when I want one (or 5) and they are available.
