A seller on the 'bay has them - Kenetek T4B module - claims that they mimic the original as far as attack and decay go and are packaged in what looks like an octal relay case which is I believe same as the original, you can just see it on the right in 2nd photo. I'm quite sure a quick internet search would bring up a number of companies selling them.

Some do make their own I know but this was a 'love job' for my nephew and I did not want to spend time experimenting with El panels and LDR's he came to the party for optical module and the turret board but everything else was donated by me.

My other passion is model engineering and I was keen to get back to machining my Quorn Tool and Cutter Grinder, I'm 3/4 there with all of the machining on the castings and spindle finished.
