Yet another resistance decade box
BFX:
I have an dilema about the case :)
First choice is much small one.

Second one is little bit different

and I decided pull outside each decade output to have like divider.
What do you think about it? (I'm prepared to have also ground connected to case)

Can I ask how are you going to cut square holes for the switch.
FYI this message is the first one I have seen with its own scroll bar because of the link

Wow! Those KM3 switches are like twice the size! Very big. I think I like better the small ones, although have not yet tried to solder the kits I received. I still need to go through the learning experience like EZ24 has been doing.

Actually the large one is easier to use because the buttons are larger thus easier to get your finger on it. But this has been a fun project and I am sure you will have fun like me.
I think I lack one thing (it is on order) is solder paste. I think with solder paste, the SMD would lay flat, then I could tack solder it then go back and add solder. I saw this method by watching a video on pick and place machines. The video said the board had solder flux added to it first in order to stick the SMDs to the board. Once I get the paste I will let you know how it goes.
BFX:
Already prepared to finalize :)
Thank you Fortran 8)
