A drill file holds the hole information for the pcb.
Without that i cant get the pcb made as there is no info for the through the hole components.

You can do what you want with it, but I would not recommend to build the original Cumulus, there are a lot of issues with..

Yes, that is true. You can build it and if it works then it is an incredible piece of hardware (I have one and it is great!) but there is a probability that it doesn't and then you've lost your time and money.

It has been reported to fail with Orics which had RAM chips replaced, some version of the ULAs and such things. Other times it simply doesn't work.
