Here is a video from day 2 of Tim's Flying Vii. Part of the guitar vision was to include a theremin circuit on board the guitar. My first attempt failed, but I had 2 additional kits. So I started over with a new circuit board. I installed the capacitors and resistor, along with the 8-pin connector for the 555 timer. I moved on to the leads and components. I was almost finished, and the same problem that plagued me last time hit again. The soldered wire broke off in the pass-through solder pad on the circuit board. I used a solder sucker, a needle, plus my soldering iron, but nothing would work to clear the broken and soldered wire.
As I lost my patients (off camera) I ripped all the wires from the board. Which was too easy, as this Chinese wire really sucks ⚾🏉🏐🏀🎱⚽.
👉 WARNING 👈
As you can imagine, there is a bit of profanity (so much for getting monetized 🤣. So, kids, make sure your parents are not around when you watch the video!! Hahahaha, I even screwed up the edit on the video too!! Some days, it doesn't pay to get out of bed.
So, I will get some better-quality wire and try one more time to build this thing!!! Wish me luck. I will need it!!!
Stay tuned ... more to come!!
