Thanks for the explanation; that answers quite a few of my questions. I will have to investigate the other forum posts, although there's quite a lot of information to sort through. It would be great if someone familiar with the project could write an updated Wiki or guide.

If the project is important to you, then it deserves your input and research.

Hey guys!

Finally the second board is completed, is a bit different from the other because I decide to place the 1N4007 diode to the bottom of the board I don't think that can be bad also like mister Carlos said to change the 22ohms resistor to 47ohm is done for both boards I'm going to test the second board tomorrow is kind of late but yeah I'm happy that is completed, I have to wash the bottom of the board with some soap to clean all the flux residues and be ready to test, I use some hot gun glue to keep the caps steady not really necessary but is for myself so is all good.

About the chassis for the amp I have problems with the shipping not many web sites send stuff to Puerto Rico so if some one know a good web site that sales amplifier chassis please let me know I do appreciate any information guys, al right guys "Merry Christmas to all of you MKIII Hx builders"!

I use Kerosene (aviation jet fuel) to remove flux from my circuit board.

Alcohol also works, but let some white powder in the place where have removed the flux and forces you to complete the job using kerosene or other paint solvent..... soap helps too...but not all that good.

Old tooth brush and Kerosene is perfect...let it evaporate by itself and enjoy the good look of your circuit board.

Cachaça, Whisky, Tequila and some hot beverages also help.

Alcohol and other things alike.... Ethanol, Etilic, Isopropyl and all variations

regards,

Carlos

all these liquids we use to dilute paint...and to clean our hands and brushes.

Petrol solvents

Thinner cannot be used, also acetone can remove old board's silk screen... gasoline can be use but have bad smell.

Brazilian gasoline does the job perfectly because already has 20 percent of Alcohol mixed into it...a different kind of alcohol that does not contain water in it's formula (anhydrous)... you must come here and i will give you some.

kerosene and paraffin and 28second gas oil are all the same.
Aviation jet fuel is a very clean kerosene.
