As in you do not have the parts required handy, or it does not work? D:

Somehow, I ran out of two types of resistors. So I had to stop populating the board at an early stage. _________________ Red is black and plus is minus. http://www.bild-schall.com |

Oh no! Haha...when that happens, I usually get crafty and use some in series or parallel to get close to the right value I need
Though if you're missing, say, 10 of them - that can be pretty annoying!

Unfortunately, batch #1 is all sold out! There will be another run shortly - as soon as someone provides some feedback on the first revision of the board layout
Shall I put you down for two on the pre-orders list? |

I'm also almost through with stuffing the board.
Will have some quality time for DIY next week and should be through with this fairly soon.
Keeping you looped! |

OK guys - enough already!
It's been a LONG time since you got the boards - I had an earlier board of this design stuffed and running in one evening.
Let's see some completed projects!

Actually, the board is completed. It took some time to set up up my new web shop and I spent the weekend at a classic car meeting to support my owners club. Hope to finish the wiring RSN. _________________ Red is black and plus is minus. http://www.bild-schall.com |

Ah! Well then, I very much look forward to hearing of your results!
What is your web shop, if you do not mind me asking? I run one myself using Prestashop (I love love loooove Prestashop's server software!) |

Sweet! So... what's the procedure for placing orders for boards and for paying for them? My quad Mega Percussive Synth is almost finished and needs playmates!!!  |

OH! That is wonderful, Mathias! I am so happy to hear that.
Thank you for putting this project high on priority to get it done asap -- much appreciated!
@Sam -- the boards still need to be ordered. Once they are here, I will post my PayPal information here and begin shipping them out. I am taking pre-orders now for the next batch. Should I put you down for some?
The rev2 layout is in its final stages of tweaking. I have managed to optimize the board quite a bit and make some cosmetic/build tweaks that should benefit all!  |

Well, the layout is pretty much done!
And, I am pleased to announce that having shaved roughly 10mm off the length of the board, I have reduced the cost enough to incorporate silk-screening into this design! The board comes in at a cool 111mm wide, now.
I have also tweaked a lot of custom parts to get the silk-screen the way I want it to look. A lot of care has gone in to making it easily readable, and aesthetically pleasing.
The boards will still be NON solder masked, but that is only to facilitate easier trace-cutting for the Bentley Mods!
Also, 2.54mm (.1") pitch standard headers have been added to accommodate those of us with Eurorack modulars. Now you can just use a chunk of 2x5 pin header and interface directly with a Eurorack style power distribution board! Or, don't, and just install wires in the header's place instead! A silk-screen legend has been added to make sure you don't connect the power to the board improperly.
Here is a little teaser! I am working on getting the funding for the next board run. I should have them ordered in a few weeks!
