I received my OTS Lunchbox kit and here's the first shot of the board in progress.  This is my first time building on a PCB type kit, but it's a lot easier than hat I had expected.  I added the big caps first so they make it easy to flip the board over and solder from the back.

I have more pics...  The build is coming along and I now have the board completed, most of the off board wiring done, and am ready to wire up the board.  

Got the trannies in today and will probably be ready for testing tomorrow night.  I have more pics, but looks like 4 is the limit I can attach to this post.  Will put together a slide show with a link when I finish the build.

You've got all those wires going to the bus bar that look unsoldered - are they? I always solder as I'm going, otherwise I'm afraid I'd forget something. I noticed a few others like that in a few spots.

Hi sduck,
I always save soldering the bus bar for last in case I need to change anything on the pots because I can move it a little to get behind it and work.  I think it's just a habit but it probably makes more sense to solder as you go.  The other spots were more than likely waiting on wires from the board or trannies.

That makes sense. I see they're all soldered now!
