I think Thomas is confusing his rotary sequencer designs. There s no inner circle on the klee, and no central big knob . I just took a look at his design, and

Does the Klee have an inner circle of knobs? It appears on the FPD that there is an outer circle of knobs, and inner circle are LEDs... or am I misreading it?

2008-12-22 by thomas white
What solder type are you using? And was it problem with flow or size of the joints you had to solder? The more specifics the better in case a new run happens.
2008-12-21 by sduck409
Along those lines, I would suggest moving the ground plane to the component side, ala synthtech/motm boards. It would make soldering easier, less worrisome.
