Subject: Re: [motm] 5U E560 Deflector Shield conversion

From: Richard Brewster <pugix@...>
Date: 2014-08-24

I got the E560 and E580 DIY boards, and also FPE panels from Dave Brown's designs.  I removed the switches and pots today.  I want to use the pot mounting holes to mount the board to a bracket, so I don't have to drill holes in the corners of the PCB.  Maybe I didn't get all the solder out of the pot mounting holes, because a 4-40 nylon screw doesn't quite fit through.  If I removed all the solder would they fit?   Or if I drilled them out to 1/8 inch, would that risk damaging the board?

Thanks,

Richard Brewster

I just finished up doing a 5U conversion of the E560 Deflector Shield.  It's basically the same as my E580 conversion but I took some photos and built a web page for it. Most of the conversion details are on my 580 page.  This is a very nice module!
