Brian's AU-555 restoration

The DS410 diodes are for bias compensation, I would not recommend replacing them if the idle bias is stable; the 1N4148 may be an adequate replacement.
I have had bias instability in a 555 caused by the original bias compensation diodes. Can confirm that replacing with 1N4148 worked perfectly.
