I’ve got all the resistors in across 10 full modules, 4 more more in queue, and have already starting thinking about sourcing PCBs. Please don’t tell me it can get worse.

I have one box 100cmX60cm filled and plans for the 2nd and 3rd 75cm x 40cm boxes for June/July.
I have modules built for those and a whole bunch more planned to be fabricated. Some sets I’ll have extras of as I’ll only require 2 or 3 out of 5 sets. THE BST thread is the place to look.
It gets crazy but I now have so much complete stock of so many various components that this comes in real handy for all my usual/unusual repairs in my shop.

Physical space and mechanical adjustments are an interesting challenge in builds.
Hit me up for some build notes when you hit a wall.
