How I Rack-mounted my Line 6 Pod Guitar Effects Processor

Step 5 Wiring up the jacks, pots and encoders...

This was fun - tedious, but straight-forward. For ever lead that was soldered onto the PCB, run a wire from that connection point to the lead on the component... I got in the habit of using black, red and green wires for my connections - the black going to the ground, the green being the center/hot, and red being the +5 line (when appropriate)...

To play it safe too, I flatted out the smaller capacitors on the board - and if you think that's a lot of wires now... wait a couple of steps...
