Hey guys, im drillin my own board from board i bought from george. At the time, i had bought the board for a custom build, but that fell through so im gonna use it to build a jmp50. anyone have a layout that will fit on a board like georges?

Thanks all!

So you are making your own perf board from a solid board?

Then installing turrets on it?

Lead or bass specs?

There are layouts of the board on Wiki.

But if you are talking about exactly where each turret goes, what I have done in the past is layout the parts by drawing it on paper.

Once I am sure the parts will fit and everything looks good I taped the paper onto the board then used a awl and marked the turret locations.
Since you are using perf board I guess you could still use a paper layout but just install the turrets where they should go according to your paper layout.

Unless I completely misunderstood your question which is entirely possible.

yeah, i wanna turret a solid board.maybe perf it too =] i bought the solid board a while back and well, im gonna use it for this project now =] i need a drill mask that can fit over George's board since i like his boards a lot, but seeing as i have a solid one, ill just drill it and turret/stake it.

Why not take perfboard, insert and mark component end locations for drilling and use the perfboard as a master to drill your solid board? This way, if you so choose, you can use other colored boards for later reproductions?
