Hi Dan,
Still working on this, currently finishing the mechanical parts (frame to hold the PCB, and the connector insert at the top), that way I'll know how much space I have and where to look out when I start populating the boards.
I searched a long-time for the base/connector, as having one machined newly would have cost me an arm and a leg.... Eventually I found an original one from an M269 microphone, and it still cost me an arm and a leg
The cool thing is that the +40 years old part fits perfectly in my U87Ai... something I found quite remarkable.
So that's where I am, I would expect that the frame etc. are done within the next few weeks, I'll post some pictures then!
