wire.
Glue the amplifying pattern to the outside of the box and glue the foil circle over the center of the pattern. Measure the places for the stems of the potentiometers to go through( allowing for the size of the pots on the underside and the dials) and mark them.
Do the same for the jacks. Punch the holes as needed and a small hole in the center of the foil circle for the screw. Insert the screw so the head is in the center of the foil circle. Now turn the lid over.
Wire the pots together and put the stems of them through the holes provided. Attach the holding nuts that come with them and tighten them. Attach the knobs to the stems.
Wire the pots to the screw as in the diagram.
Repeat this procedure with the jacks, again wiring them to the screw. Place the nut on the screw and tighten it to hold it and the wires in place.
Put the lid on the box and the unit is complete.
See how easy that was! Remember, Psionics is easy, math is hard.( And so was GI Joe which is why Barbie left Ken for him.)
You are going to need a couple of other things to work this machine. First, you will need an input plate if you want to work it standing up, and that is very easy to make. All you need is:
1 piece of posterboard about 4 " X 4 " 1 length of speaker wire 1 plug( same size as the jacks on the machine) some aluminum foil 2 alligator clips some glue. Attach the plug to one end of the speaker wire and the alligator clips to the other end. Wrap the foil over the posterboard and glue it in place so you have a foil plate.
