Well, it did help that they used a simple serial connection back then and didn’t require any advanced electronics. Just a bunch of resistors and basic stuff like that, all relatively large components that are easy to solder with what I had back then. I’m not sure how easy it would be these days with USB.
Respect dude. Those cables are stupidly expensive (to match the calculators I guess), I just bit the bullet on mine

USB is actually really easy too. It’s only four wires.
Understandable soldering bollocks
