Hi gang,
Just took delivery on K2 #3839. I have never built a K2 and thought I would
ask for suggestions from seasoned folks who have done it.
The kit seems to be laid out pretty well with certain groups of bags which I
assume will correspond with the order of assembly. Nates comment about the
board images was a good one so I started off by doing hi-res scans of the
boards so if I bridge something I can take a look at the original ! Thanks
Nate for making me think about that.
But my real question is that I am setting up a dedicated bench for building
the K2. (By the way I bought everything as far as options except the 100
watt PA which I plan to build as soon as the K2 is complete). I was looking
for tips for parts storage, etc during the build. I was thinking about
getting a short tupperware container to dump the parts into as I do each
board but not sure how the whole deal goes together. Working out of the
ziplock does not sound like the hot setup.
Any tips about the best way to do this? Trying to avoid parts scattered
across the bench !
