Looking for a particular component or hardware part and you just cannot find it? Got comoonents surplus and want to get rid of it? Post it all here... No sales of working pedals, put these in the 'Seen for sale' section please.

Great idea! only problem is the pots I got from tayda... alpha ones with the sweet little plastic dust/conductive covers, dont fit into the holes of the vero and perf I received from them. Do you have to sand down the terminals to get them to fit? I was also thinking I could enlarge the holes on teh perf but I thought that might ruin the copper traces. eh?

Nah, I do that with perf and vero all the time.
Thats a sick little hand drill! whered you get that? or what size is the bit? id love to start using vero strips for my pc pin pots

depends on the size of the strips and spacing and all that. The pin vise that I bought is just a chuck that holds bits, so I robbed whatever old bit i had lying around that was big enough to easily remove all the copper on vero and used that.
