xchagg 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2005 (edited) Hi, I'm thinking of building a PIMETA next. Tangent is still out of the RK097 pot (the one with built-in switch). Are there local sources for this particular pot? I found something similar in RS, but the manufacturer number doesn't quite tally. Can someone take a look and see if they might be the same pot? The correct manufacturer's number should be RK0971221Z05, but is listed on RS as STRK09707. RS Stock No.: 249-9159 As for the case, which of the following Hammonds would be a good size case to fit the board and 2 9Vs or 12 AA/AAAs? It's not meant to be portable, but I don't want too huge a case sitting on the desk. Hammond Cases Other case suggestions are welcome too, as long as it's plastic. (Drill not good enough haha) On a side note, I managed to properly case up my CMOY2, LM6171, LED and all (on the 3rd Hammond case lol), except i screwed up the volume knob positioning. Is there a way to remove the volume knob from the shaft and reposition it? I was considering heating up the knob, dunno if it'll work though. Thanks. EDIT: One more question . . is there a local source for the Vishay Dale RN55 series resistors? Edited July 3, 2005 by xchagg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xchagg 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2005 ah well, the pot in question is back in stock at Tangent so no need for alt pots . . . Again, is there a local source for the Vishay Dale RN55 series resistors? And if a Tupperware is used as a casing, is there cause for worry of static electricity buliding up inside the casing and frying the ICs? Thx. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
