Progress: (Attached).

Just need to make up the connecting cable + plugs for each end. I have to say this PCB makes the interface an absolute doddle to build, thanks, Slothie. There's no excuse for anyone not to make one now.

As you can see I used SMD optos because I have whole reels of them here but it would no doubt be even quicker to build with DIP optos, the SMD ones have to be positioned quite precisely so each leg just reaches the nearest pad.
