I ran into this thread and got inspired to have a crack at my own version:

This has not been tested so keep that in mind. I also had to create the DIN14 symbol using only photos I took of the port and connector and their dimensions. Should be the right size. I spent way too much time on this

This looks nice and tidy!
In theory, would you be able to connect up a CosmosEx externally using this adapter design, if you do a Drive A/B switch mod to your ST or STE? Power would be provided via a phone charger, which is what I use currently to get a decent current from instead of my STE board's connector.

Something I'm also looking at, nice idea, gives me food for thought

None exist or have been produced by myself. This is something I made on Sunday so no guarantee it works

Or have you GERBER files to produce the adapter ?
