POT WIRING
Give yourself enough wire to be able to manoeuvre things around in the box
without ending up with spaghetti junction in there. 35-40mm is plenty.
JACK and DC WIRING
I’d recommend longer wires until the circuit has been tested. Then you can
detach them, put everything in place in the box, then make them as short as
possible (without tension) in the final boxing up.
FOOTSWITCHES
The holes for the footswitch tags have been made deliberately a little bigger
than required so there’s a bit of slack for placement. If you’ve ordered a
pre-drilled enclosure the holes for the footswitches are 1mm bigger than
would normally be supplied. Wiggle room is always good.
To attach the footswtiches to the board, first put them in place in the
enclosure. Don’t fully tighten them - just enough to hold them in place.
Now place the PCB down on top of the footswitches and manouevre until
you’re happy with placement. Now solder them in. Get plenty of solder in
there. It isn’t necessary to completely fill the holes but it won’t harm to be
sure of a good connection.
