I'm an enthusiast of old computer replicas. Actually, I've already assembled some kits like Altair(duino) 8800, PiDP-8 and PiDP-11. There
are very nice to study old languages like focal/cobol/fortran/basic and assembly language as well.
On jan/2021 I assembled a ZX81 (homebrew project) and I'm recovering my
old apple ][+. But there unusual minicomputers are awesome.
Is there anyone into it?
I also thought about a PiDP-11 :)

I've built an IMSAI 8080 replica, based on an ESP32 microcontroller.
It's a nice soldering project and looks very nice.
Besides, I've built an RC2014, a "new" Z80-based machine where I'm
using CP/M on, together with several add-on cards (sound, terminal,
RTC ...). And I have a SC126, also a "new" design, based on a Z180. It uses the same bus pinout as the RC2014 and so I can also use the same add-on cards there. I also use CP/M on this machine.

Do you have links to the above 2 projects?
I have the KIM-Uno from the same guy. https://obsolescence.wixsite.com/obsolescence/kim-uno-summary-c1uuh

How's the SC126 compare to the RC2014? I've already got a few RC2014s
that I don't use enough and I'm debating whether to add the SC126 to my project list.
