Just wanted to share with everyone one of the solutions I came up with for connection to my amiga 1200 for the SD emu. I decided to do a little modding so that I wouldn't have to have a cable sticking out of the case. I installed an external 34 pin port on the back of the case so that I could just plug in the SD emu when using it.
Mouser Part #: 517-4634-6000
Pics are below. I am moving on to my atari ST next and in the process of developing a homebrew case for the SD emu. I'll keep everyone informed with my progress as I go and will try to make a DIY for it so others can follow.

Re: Pics for external floppy connector
I still think about case for sd emul.
Price would be approx 10 euro..when ordering 10 000
geee....
so far all we have to do is handwork

After making an ass out of myself (really sorry lotharek ) and getting some guidance on one of the connections here is what I came up with for a finished wiring harness. A lot of the parts I had already from scavenged computers and the rest I ordered from mouser.

Oh no.....I would never hurt any of my retro equip. for parts. I lucked into about six really old pc's and was able to strip them for wiring, molex connectors, etc.
This is the harness that I will use in whatever case I come up with for the SD emu. I have a rough idea of a simple design in my head that I am going to try this weekend....if it is successful I will post some pics.

The LCD is the one that comes with the SD kit from Lotharek. You could use this maplin partmau_rizio wrote:@gsargent

and just cut/break off six pin segments. Then solder wires to the connections and use heat shrink tubing to cover. That is exactly the way I did it. Then I ran them to a 14 pin header connection. I couldn't find the part number on maplin but here is the mouser with the manufacturer part number
Mouser Part #: 649-65043-030LF
Manufacturer Part #: 65043-030LF
You will also need these connectors to crimp on the end of your wires coming from the pin strip to latch into the 14 pin header above
Mouser Part #: 649-47750-000LF
Manufacturer Part #: 47750-000LF
Hope this helps. I plan on making a more detailed how to and I will post a link to it here soon.
