Well finally finished work for the week and I stopped into Jaycar to get the M3x15mm tapped spacers and missed the cut for the 12 volt shop.
Anyway the code:
MM571060A
21MB1G1
So my aim is to get the main board mounted so it can go on the table and my old Kipoint can under on the shelf. As theres no way the big toroid is going in the case until the case is mounted as it will be heavy to lift.
Well got the main board mounted and I'm using all 8 holes in the PCB so the pcb can sit nice and flat in operation.
The toroid and chokes will sit on the base so the wiring will be nice and close, still got the bussbars to finish and it does look like a Sunday morning with a coffee will a good time to get back working with copper.
Now for the brain board I do have a 240x100mm perspex 6mm thick and it will be mounted on the righthand side so it can hold the brainboard and the buck converter.
That 2mm bit of plate I cut worked out well for holding the heatsink for the TIP35 which can go off the left wall.
I am also thinking that 175 amp anderson connector is a good idea as I'm going to put that 450 amp switch on the negative and a very short cable to the switch as it will be mounted on my main DC power board.
