I suppose if I were so inclined I could make some of those. Over there (points in the general direction of a set of plastic storage bins into which things disappear never to be seen again) is a box of 100 well aged 3.5” formatted floppies most of which are unused.

I think they’re beige colored. If your daughter needs more raw material let me know and I’ll see if they’re really there and then we can work out something.. ;-)

And if she can think of a use for a slew of PATA ribbons or some Centronics port cables (you know, the ones that look a lot like IEEE 1284 connectors..) let me know. I know a source, cheap.. ;-)

Don’t have any RS232 cables though.

Thank you for the offer, NC. If anyone actually orders any of the few she made from the old floppies I could find, I’ll put you two in touch.
