Cheers John now we have turned into match maker as well ! :love-struck:
Bench is varnished, I have a power breaker fitted and the pooter’s installed –with XP SP3. So the Cat is on the bench, but the serial cable was male to female and I need a male to male as I’m not installing the hardware that came with it.
I need to drills some big holes in the bench to feed the cabled down and move my lamp to the middle, but I’m not paying £20 to use it once so I’ll nip to my dads who no doubt has one from the 1960’s in drawer in his workshop somewhere.
Down side is the hardboard on the bed is held down with what look like Philips screws and the heads are mangled, so somehow I need to get that off to diagnose the tilted bed problem.. well I’m off to CPC in the morning for a serial cable. Then hopefully have a bit of a trial run with her.
Looks good. Soon be cutting.

Just buy a gender changer for the cable you have it should be cheaper.
One thing to check with shop purchased cables is to check that all pins are connected (voice of experience :eek:)
PS11270 - PRO SIGNAL - LEAD 25 WAY DM TO 25 WAY DM 2M | CPC
I'm hoping they are all connected Unit Price: £2.91 (£3.49)

What you needed was CS17364 @ Unit Price: £2.06 (£2.47) (PS11274 - PRO SIGNAL - LEAD 25 WAY DM TO 25 WAY DM 1 | CPC)
CS9115, CS17364 wiring: all pins connected 1-1, 2-2 etc.
