Re: 4U > 3U refurb number 2

>>I'll stick it in the files section tomorrow- it's on my PC at work.<<

bear with me.... I need to find the files first (work PC is a disaster) & then augment them with a little document explaining how to make it all fit together. 

the big gotchas are the menu switch board (the long narrow one with two buttons & eight LEDs) & the IDC connectors on the pot board & switch board..... 

since I've never seen a kit-form P3, I don't know how much of the board assembly is completed, but in my two factory machines, the lower pot board & the step-switch had angled IDC connectors, while the upper pot board had a straight IDC connector. I had to exchange this with the one from the step-switch board so that the connectors would all fit with the boards mounted closer together. so.... the step-switch board has a straight-up IDC connector & the two pot boards both have an angled connector.
the menu switch board had to be trimmed to fit behind the 3U panel, & I had to make new mounting holes. this is an easy if somewhat delicate operation, & probably quite easy to mess up!

anyway. pictures & files to follow.
