Space inside zx81 case

Postby sirmorris on Mon Feb 15, 2010 12:47 pm

I'm away from my supply of zx81s at the moment - can anyone tell me how much space I have to play with inside the case?

I'm thinking of making a riser board which will sit between the z80 and its socket. If I choose the lowest profile sockets will there be any room??

Thanks

Looking inside a socketed issue one I would say there is space enough at the top end of the z80,
but it's a bit tight at the lower end due to the slope of the case.

Hope this helps.
