  1. Maybe a stupid question, but isn't there a cut missing below the horizontal 1k resistor above the IC? This way I don't really see the point of it...

  2. I'm sorry to do this on this thread, but I need help with the two grounds on the Plimsoul. Its been a while since anyone has applied there. Its obvious that every lug has a wire coming from the vero, and also, its obvious how to wire the switch. However, I'm confused about having two grounds. Someone please help me in detail.

    1. You can connect the 2 grounds to anywhere there is a ground. Ground is ground there really aren't two different grounds. You could just run the upper left ground wire to the bottom row ground so you will only have one ground coming from the board. Or you could run each them to different 1/4 inch jack grounds. Just make sure you avoid ground loops.

      It looks like Mark has two grounds like that to help keep the board size down.

      Or if I'm wrong on this somebody can correct me.

    2. Exactly right Dave, it was already 21 columns wide so I didn't want to add an additional column for the required link, so just daisy chain your ground wire, or take two wires from the board to a single ground point offboard.
