[sdiy] c&k on-on-on switches

[Gene Stopp]

Ah darnit forgot my smiley there... i wuz just pickin on you since our
examples were almost completely identical except you started from the bottom
and I started from the top. Your nuclear reactor switch design career is
safe (and so is the local community).

I've always thought a bunch of these switches would be great for a little
patchcordless synth project ala ARP Odyssey. Each switch would have its own
attenuator as a mod input and select from three different sources (like the
oddy does with two-source slide switches). Later on I thought "heck why stop
there" and drew up a design with 12 sources per mod input on a rotary
switch.

sorry i'm ripping off your sig trademark - i'll stop now :)

D'oh!!


You know what I did? I related the switch positions to the listing order in
the diagram. Turns out that if I had actually LOOKED at the drawing of the
switch handle, I would have gotten it right.

Oh well, back to my job of designing safety lock-out switches for nuclear
reactors...
