Nice work! Demo?
Also, I miss it when the build doc does not have any commentary on the project- I like some opinion and such. The doc only shows 1 pot wired, was it intended to have all 4 wired in a 1590a?

Thanks, i don't think i will do a demo of this one since it's a Zendrive clone and there's plenty of them on youtube already....and probably some demo of this exact layout.

This layout uses and need 4 pots if you want the real deal, i think that Brian (Madbean) just draw one pot in the build doc just to show how they needed to be wired.

lols.


I was happy to get it done with 9mm pots. I didn't even think it was possible to FIT two 16mm pots side-by-side.

Good thing they weren't 17mm by the looks of it!

I also did'nt knew before that i could fit 2 side by side, 16.1mm would be too much, i had to firmly press them down! ;)

What was it like using the Switchcraft 12A jacks rather than the low profile ones?

For a moment, I thought it was a 1590B with VERY odd photography, then it was like "Holy crap."  ;D

Wow! Can pots ground out against each other? If so, how did you prevent that here? Color me impressed! I love the look of tight but tidy interiors.

My dad used to always say "measure twice, cut once!"
This makes me think "measure 19 times..."
where'd you get a fabbed board from?

As always, great job!  :o

Thanks, the fit is really close, all the pot covers touch each other but the lugs are fine, it's a bit of work to press them in.....

Anyway...this was a good heat up for my second 3in1 mini! :P

Cool! Also you can also get some paint, wipe it across the letters and wipe excess of and you get color left in letters after.

Yeah! i want to try that, but with empty enclosure with a piece of wood in them and smash the letters with a 2 pound sledge hammer, so it's deep enough...........going to try alot of things with this...distressed shizzle and the likes :)

hi all, just wondering if this layout is available? I was under the assumption that madbean's one on the pdf fits a 1590A but i just etched it and most likely it doesn't, at least not with the pot pads facing the upper side of the pcb (reads about 43mm width x 35mm height)

thanks in advance, great forum here ;-)

That's some amazing work man! I can't believe you crammed all of that in there. Great idea bending the lug on the input jack to squeeze it in next to the 3pdt. I'll definitely be borrowing that technique...

That version of the layout is not available anymore i think, i grab it from a member here i think.......can't recall. But even this one was super tight. I could'nt push it lower than what it is at the moment..........snug fit between the sidewalls.

Thanks, that way of fitting the 3PDT and open jacks have allowed me to fit more stuff in 1590A than any other configuration.

If you want to use this configuration, here are the measurements to make everything super tight at the bottom of enclosure without nothing touching.

All measure from bottom of enlcosure when looking at the «face side» of it.

3PDT center at 11mm

Input jack at 25mm

Output jack at 35mm

Once i have the line traced on «face side» of enclosure, i just use a «square» and bring the line down on the side wall and center punch the jacks hole in the middle of the height of sidewall.

I've built another one earlier this week........will post some pics later, using the «FengDrive» layout wich is more compact, was a total breeze to fit in....just could'nt wait to have my 1590A 9mm pot daughter board in hand so i went with 16mm pots again....hehe
