  1. Parts arriving tomorrow to build an Arduino-powered SDrive-MAX for my A8 machines. Should be fun!

      But that's it. The touchscreen just plugs straight down into the female headers on the Arduino board. Connect to your computer and run a batch script to program the Arduino with the SDrive-MAX firmware and that's it.

      Wow, that sounds fairly easy. I do have a temperamental 1010 SIO cable, so I just need to meter which end it is and use that.

      Did you use the Elegoo UNO touch screen ? These are the only ones I can find in the UK that work with the Arduino.

      Yes, I bought the suggested Elegoo touchscreen/microSD card module from Amazon (US) for $15.84. I plugs right down into the Arduino & once you update the Arduino firmware (automated by the script provided), when you boot the system the first time, you use the include stylus to calibrate the screen & you're basically done with that part.
