Built the schematic for the status register / instruction counter and instruction decoder with microcode (EEPROMs).  This is more of a working design.  Currently it has inverters on all the decoder outputs but many of the control signals are active low and will not require interting.  When I build it I will optimize.

I am building all the microcode in a database so I can run queries to try and find all the possible groups of control signals that are exclusionary (never used at the same time) this way I can use more encoders to reduce the amount of EEPROM's.  Currently I need 5, but might be able to get it down to 3 or possibly 2.  There are 50 control signals.  If they were all exclusionary I could get by with 1 EEPROM (6 bits = 64 signals).   After I've designed all the microcode I may even find there are control signals that aren't used in any instruction.

I've also been working on some slight redesigns of the other schematics, including the ALU.  I found some LS181 and LS182's on ebay so I will be building my ALU out of those.  Although I like @roelh's ALU design, I can reduce the chip count significantly by using 2 181's and a 182.   I might just build @roelh's first as I won't be getting the 181's and 182 for a while.

I can't get to doing any actual building as I am still waiting on some key components to arrive, like wire and capacitors.  Unfortunately there are no decent electronics shops where I live (near Edmonton, Alberta).  There used to be an good one called Active Electronics but they shut down.  There are a few small shops but they have exorbitant prices.  I was going to get a roll of 22AWG hookup wire from them.  They were charging $25 for a 50 foot roll.   I've got several different 100 foot rolls on order for $8.50 USD each.  I couldn't bring myself to pay that much for something that I've already ordered.  I've spent more that I wanted to on this already.   I'm just going to have to be patient and wait a bit until I can actually start building things.
