Step 1:
Place the resistors in
the board. Bend the leads and
solder. Clip the leads and save
them.
Step 2: Use the leads to form
the jumper wires. One of the
jumpers may be too long for a
lead to work, so cut a piece of
regular wire instead.
Step 3: Insert the film capacitors
AND chip socket. The idea
here is to align it so that you
leave as much space as you
can in accommodating the
large electrolytic capacitors in
the next step. On my board, I
have some off-center capacitor
placement for this purpose.
