I know you’ll absolutely love designing things to print… it’s such an enabler, and can get a project moving. Scored there with the free PLA spool! I’m sure others know about 3D printing, but if I can help with a problem… ---

> [@ChristianBloch](#): > > Do you have a link for those knobs? They look very nice! And are they for 6 mm shafts or 6.35 mm? Most of what I’ve found on AliExpress is 6 mm, which is fine for panel mount jacks, but the board mount 9mm jacks Sam likes to use are hard enough to find in 6.35 mm, virtually nonexistent in 6 mm so far as I can tell. ---

Here’s the link for them. I needed some smaller knobs for the attenuator I was building and also for the Eurorack modules I was building. I wanted those to match, as closely as I could, to the Boss knobs I use for Kosmo builds. I’m very happy with them. @analogoutput these are for round 6.35mm and have an inset screw. > **[US $25.0 |100PCS KN 111 pedal effectors knobs for potentiometer...](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32664304983.html?spm=a2g0s.12269583.0.0.7a9e351baVBUNb)** > > Smarter Shopping, Better Living!

I’ve been trying to find a Worng SoundStage for at least a month at no more than MSRP and one finally popped up on Reverb. It’s a very specialized 21 channel mixer. Sure makes my 24 channel Allen & Heath seem a bit oversized. 😀 ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/a/ae45879f491093a785edaa3e42e2f9a077a2ef67.jpeg) Here’s the DivKid video: [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/0/052a1f0af278fdb88b48191616cc31db254cc24c.jpeg "WORNG Electronics Soundstage // 3D stereo mixing + more in Eurorack") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97b8czs8elA) Edit: Like everything else, it fills up fast: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/b/b1fd8f3af23f43f38a2933e13694c2f269f55475.jpeg) ---

I need to find a proper stock control software that can handle the basics of MRP. I never know what I have, if I have it on order, if it needs reorderd, how quick it gets used… Time to implement some of the stuff I learned at university 25 years ago, Presently the 3D printer is chugging through G-Codes, One (only) thing I excelled at on my engineering modules) Rob ---

Component ctrl software is a solution to a problem that doesn’t really exist. I have a running list of projects. On a white board are lists of the BOM for the next 6 projects and some polystyrene packing trays holding those bits on the list. By prepping ahead I know in advance what I’m missing or low on as I make up each tray. ---

I use a spreadsheet. A line for each component, columns for each project showing how many of each part they need. It can be a little clunky to use but it more or less gets the job done. ---

Yeah, mine does something like that with conditional formatting. If part inventory \< parts needed, color the line red. ---

I will probably make an updated inventory (approximation) spreadsheet soon. I’ve been putting component values into my email search function to see if I have ordered them in the past. Well my much needed Frequency Central power supply PCB’s finally showed up after nearly 2 months. ![20200616_172842](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/lookmumnocomputer/original/2X/2/2e18d150afd0584bd753b5a199bdf58d1775f1b5.jpeg) ---
