PPP 3pdt pcb

[billstein]

Just ordered a few 3pdt boards from PPP. Anybody try them? The holes are to small to fit in the lugs of the stomp switch. Is there a reason why?

Somebody correct me if i'm wrong, but i think they are for 3pdt toggle switches, to change effect order, etc. Matt.

Did some more looking around and think I've figured it out. It's probably for their PCB mount 3pdt switches. Actually a very cool solution for tight spaces.

I'm not a huge fan of how they've just labelled the pads 1 to 8.

It reminds me of a lecture from my woodwork teacher a couple decades ago -- if you don't put down length of whatever, width of whatever, and what units it's in for an equation you're doing, you are just adding and subtracting some random numbers, not numbers pertaining to something concrete. (He put it better, though.)

What's weirder is how they have actually limited you to 8 pads. Look there is only pads for 1-7.

What if you do want to use that other (8th) pad.... Things won't look so neat...
