First off, I’ve always liked the term EDI for the [belt gizmo](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform/calculator-circuit-board) as I can technobabble it more that way. Second, Pics! ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/b/c/bc01babba857b24a1ea1276afeb04c576aeede8f.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/a/9/a92b2c539a68f8a9c9d97d02b5715b47aff42203.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/5/2/525f5cf9c54838ee5eeee8be9f0f74ce6bd41173.jpeg) Now explantation. There are a lot of things I like about this buildup, but enough I don’t that I will be trying again in the near future. The holster is MMM The tracing of the main board and the layout background of the daughter board were created in photoshop. The main board was printed on gold adhesive paper, the daughterboard was plain photo paper. Except for the big chips on the main board all the electrical components are real. I still have some stuff to add behind the nixies but I couldn’t wait to post pictures. The daughter board was designed to capture the real deal as well as possible given the lack of clear pictures. In my screen cap research it appears that there might have been at least two different designs. I picked the one I felt I could discern the most. ---

The daughterboard definitely stands out. It may not last like that, unless you only display it. If you wear it at a party or event, just bumping up against something, it may come apart. Other than that, everything looks great.
