Excellent! Thanks for that.
Just missing the trimpot adjustment hole.
yes @Caustic or @fredrik (or both ?) , would be a good choice for me, if it plugs them in of course
in any case I think it will be really practical to have an editorial that is regularly present
2.5 mounting hole for trimpot on the VCO
yes dud! I have plopped some editor roles on, to be honest it was on my to do list but I couldn’t work out how to do it haha. so I think I have done it right and there is a thread about moderation somewhere. how people forward it I have no clue!
I added that to the library, also did some cleanup and courtyard adjustments.
Is a 5 mm LED hole 5.0 mm?
It is indeed. And a 3mm one is 3mm.
we likes em snug… lol
I had to translate literally to figure out what you meant.
FYI, “Si ça les branche.” is better translated by “If it’s cool with them.” or something like that.
What really plugs me in is seeing talented people using English as a second language posting here.
yes i wanted to say : “if they really agree”, surely a French expression which does not really translate into English
for expressions and also humor, it hardly works when changing languages
Yeah, you know you’ve mastered a new language when you can start making jokes, play on words or, like the great Aznavour did, write a beautiful and touching bilingual song.
yes it’s difficulte for me
here’s another song in “franglais” for français/anglais (quite funny) by Renaud
PCB (175mm High to clear mounting) (-4mm ish… of panel width for side clearance)
Great work, from small Acorns , Big Chestnuts Grow.
- Easiest way to connect the faceplate mounting holes to your copper ground pour? Working on several plates at once and don’t want to fuss around in schematics for what should be simple…*
Edit: got it figured out haha
Btw I really appreciate this specification thread
Nope that’s what I ended up doing but not before fussing with getting the copper pours on a proper net and getting the instance of pcbnew into a proper project and blah blah. Got it going now but man I wish you could just do that sort of thing more intuitively
Have you tried manually drawing a filled rectangle on the copper layer instead of a copper pour?
I thought KiCad wasn’t electrically aware of that kind of copper and would not care whether or not is shorted out other nets.
Or, since its just a front panel, can’t you just ignore the DRC failures and generate the Gerber files anyway?
Yeah it will make a trace from the pad fine but it will also remove copper around the trace and just stays isolated from the ground pour. Even when on “no net” which I figured I could hook up anything to
Hi,
Where does everyone get their Kosmo spec aluminium panels from, cant find any 20cmX10cm panels on ebay or amazon etc
