I have a ceramic 8008 on an 11/34 console board sitting in a pile. I
could certainly borrow it for this application. I've been thinking of
a Mark-8, but I will probably never have enough time to build an original.
This one (or the uMark8) sounds feasible.

How much is "not cheap"? $50? More?

Would you consider a group buy of the Tiny-8 design? I doubt I'd want to
build one at prototype-PCB costs.
