The schematics are available on his site, as well.

I think this is a GREAT piece of work. He has some other pretty cool things on his site as well.

Because i like old stuff. It works, and you can SEE it working. And, if you are feeling geeky, you can add and subtract from the system. Instead of buying new equipment all time, why not just mod the equipment you already have?

it might save you a few bucks in the long run. Either that or it will at least keep you entertained for a few days...
