First step in very many steps: Designing the extender card to bring the video card up into the bucket, without hacking anything or bending anything over 90-degrees.
This is a rough draft, no physical measurements taken, using the CAD's default board outline. Now, I will have to take offset and height measurements so i know what to make the board size, and eurocard positions.
it is a 4-layer board, with a ground plane in between the routing layers, this is to stop intersecting lines from cross-talking at the expense of slightly added capacitance. This is also dependent on the SE/30 PDS ground pin positions so this riser cant be used in anything else.
