If you built the MOTM-900, the turret posts are very similar to the
posts you connected the power distribution board to on the power one
power supply. If not, they are small gray metal posts, about 1/4" tall
with a whole in the middle to insert a wire. They allow you to
disconnect the wires from the circuit board without having to disconnect
the mounting bracket. see attached picture. -Nate

Excellent picture. They like like little light sabres with holes through the middle. If Playschool People (tm) had light sabres, this is what they would look like. They are one of the smallest parts--especially since they aren't long.
Cheers,

Hi E eryone,
I'm building my first 320. At the top of page 11, the instructions
state "Find the 2 tiny turret posts...." Can someone describe these
posts to me? I guess I don't know what to look for, or they were
accidentally omitted from my kit.

Thanks, Randy

Thanks Nathan,
	A picture is worth  a thousand words!  Now I know what I'm looking 
for.  I may have swept them off my work table when I was cleaning up.
 
	Do you know when Paul's coming back ;)  ?
