Interested. Do you still have some? I would want 2 if available (or at least 1). Shipping to Australia.
Also, I found a source of angled DB23 male connector at very decent price. They are not of the quality of Foxconn original ones but look better than straight DB23 on a PCB....
Would you be able to modify your PCB design to accomodate these? I will open a sales thread for them as I ordered a lot in extra but I can give you access to my source...
Thank you.

Hello,
yes items available.
Yes I can modify the pcb but which is the advantage of the angled DB23?

Interested in a few of these if they are available :)

Yes available. how many you need?
 
Hard to reply about the advantage I see to use proper hole through PCB angled db23.. let’s say for one thing the part is used for the right purpose. The DB23 you use are for cable build.

Second advantage but it is personal for my application is I don’t have much space above the DB23 cutout in the case so with an angled one I’d have more space to install the ribbon cable, as the PCB will be lower... this can be overcome too with the use of an angle 34pin connector too... I can send you some pictures but better chat in private...
 
interested, pending some questions..
p.m. incoming

Would just to clarify that when using a PC floppy with the correct jumpers then I would be able to read & write to the drive as if it were an Amiga drive meaning it is fully compatible with writing Amiga formatted disks? Also would it be possible to have this fit within a case along with an internal pc floppy drive to make it a complete device?

>> yes compatible with Amiga formatted disks but the Amiga HD ones (It doesn't read and write the Amiga HD format).

>> I could ship the board without the DB23 installed. So it's up to you solder the wires of the old cable directly on the DB23 solder pads and stick the board inside the case with hot glue or something else ...

interested... just a question : the pc drive must be modified to use with it or it works only with jumpers modification??? thanks

PC drive in original status.
You only need to set up the jumper on the adapter in order to act with a native amiga drive or a native PC one.
