well, at the moment I am playing with a kryoflux board with the intention to grab all the floppie in out collection of the computermuseum at hack42.nl that being 2,5", 3", 3.5" 5.25" 8" in all kind of flavours. the Kryoflux works on the lowest level a drive can generate as long as it can direct the heads though the pinout on the drive, but a simple addon circuit to twiggy drives should be possible. decoding the flux transitions is another thing though...
