Title: Williams System 3-7 test bench
Post by: ddstoys on May 18, 2013, 03:25:46 PM: Hi Guys
Some of you might be interested in this I recently purchased an original Williams test bench from work.

Still needs plenty of love to bring it back to new but for know I've managed to get it working 100%

Thanks to Ken for his advice along the way aswell

Now if anyone has a spare 7digit display driver and a couple of working displays they would like to sell please let me know
