Assembly

DateTuesday, May 17, 2005 at 08:06PM

Today i got around to assembling the first board.

Everything appears to be good so far.  I still haven’t powered it up yet but no major snags at this time.  The biggest pain in the assembly i felt were the electroylic capacitors.  The other thing that wasn’t obvious at first was the direction the diodes go in.  It’s hard to tell but if you look very closely you can see a line on the edge of one side indicates that side is the cathode.
