The below design uses the Pixels Past design with a modification inspired by James Higgs 4 x cart. I made another minor modification to make an 8 x cart as shown below.

The gerber files are here and the build instructions for the basic unmodified cart are here.
The below picture shows my first attempt. It's a bit messy but my eyesight is not what is once was and I tend to like using the bottom of a wine glass to magnify the board while soldering. 😏 A good vintage wine complements all vintage computer projects. 😀
