Oh, ah!
Very nice photo set indeed.

The comments about keeping the wiring under control are well taken. I
attempted to use ribbon cable bits to keep from getting the 'beard of wires'
effect. It turned out still looking a bit on the messy side even so, though
not as bad as it would've been had I used separate wires for everything.
Hmmm. I also ended up making up a little daughter board for the leds, out of
a section of Radio Shack prototype PC board, with 2 sets of eight wire
ribbon cable bits running to each of the bank and wave groups of leds.

After engineering the fitting of the MW module to the Stooge panel, I
realized how easy we really do have it with Paul's kits- down to the
pre-tinned bits of co-ax all cut to length...!

I've really quite enjoyed using the finished module, BTW, though I feel as
though I haven't really yet scratched the surface...

Happy Nooo Year!
