Took a little bit to get back to this ... thank you for the help! I'll see if I can get it in there without mangling it ... well... it's going in a mangler, so it WILL get mangled one way or another!  :P

Assembling a Mangler this afternoon -the trimpot I bought doesn't exactly line up with the holes in the PCB. Did I buy the wrong one, or do I need to bend the wires to fit? Does it really matter which wires go in the three holes? Thanks! 2nd post/question in an hour - appreciate the help/patience!

General Questions / Capacitor help - mangler

Building a Mangler. Soldering the capacitors - C1 and C2. Not sure which way they go. One side of the capacitor has an indent. Want to make sure I put it in right. C1 goes one direction and C2 goes the opposite. Anyone know how to tell which way to install? Please let me know and thanks!

Thank you both! Will take a look. My 13 yr old and I have started this together - we have lots to learn. I think he's getting a kick out seeing me be totally clueless about this. Good lessons in perseverance ... and we haven't even gotten to testing a build yet  ... :-}

Thank you very much! Is there a quick explanation of what the meaning is of the "a" is vs. the "c"? Really appreciate the quick help! :-)

Hadn't checked the site in a few days. Did I miss it?   :D
