PCB Fabrication up and running

Designed new PSU for the WickOSC, Just etched it now, seems like a complete success. Whether or not the circuit actually works it yet to be seen. Expect to get it drilled and populated in next couple of days, full write up will appear on Analogablog. Pics for perusal...(notice the fine detail achievable with this method: those voltage labels are tiny but perfectly legible!)

CAD: Drag-Kart Update - Front Suspension, Steering + Stuff

Get on! Drag-Kart design exercise is coming along nicely. The frame is taking shape, although looking a little heavy, and the seat is currently a surface-mesh translated from a Google's Ketchup model of a Lancia by ..., which I'm gradually building into a set of solids so I can round the edges off and generally give it a more Bride LoMax shape. Adding detail from front to back, the suspension setup is finished, complete with silly negative-camber, but I have made a 'shim-block' to bolt between the shocks if you wanted less angle on the wheels, which you probably would. The steering is also complete, minus the steering-wheel [that dark bar isn't connected to the frame] and the pedals are inwith the beginning of the throttle + brake cable ready to be run back to what they control... A brake-caliper is nearly ready, but the engine will be the final task. It's not clear yet whether it will be a single or twin-cylinderbadboy, but it WILL be 2-stroke, elaborated from the TurboCAD tutorial for, well, some kind of engine, maybe even a pump-housing or whatever it is.
