yep, thx, I just changed to those dim., that way if I have to sub a CC res. I'll have the option.

I was doing it incorrectly. ~ now I'm dancing!.................. W 1.6 - H 1.6 and Dia .85mm, this looks good to me, and I'll be using 2oz. Again, Thanks everyone!

derevaun ~ I've been there a few times and nothing has worked. Use Pattern's Standard Pad is already uncheck when I open it, if I change the value on width it turns into a vertical line.

what should I use? does Diptrace have this function, Gerber file viewer? again, Thanks for all the input.

last Q ~ I'm assuming JLC will go by the file I send them, not changing hole size, trace size, etc?

I found how to do it, grnd & pour, the grounds are solid and I think I'll be fine, I only use top grade parts so I am pretty over the top safe when soldering.

how do I do that? I've looked through the entire list option in the schematic. can I change the size of pad/copper in PCB? the rullywow library is the only thing I've found that has most of what I need

(will this work?) >>>after running all traces, do the place copper pour and use the "route manual/trace tool" to connect the copper to the copper pour, will this work without issues? Is there any way to change the pad size in PCB mode?

I found the grid snap sizing.

I have created two schematics, one that I use a grnd connection to required parts and one that I connect all grnds together. I'm currently using the one that I connect all grnds together. is there a tool in PCB software, that will allow for me to change the grnd pads? (((or))) This is my plan...

What do you use for a ground pad? I have not been able to find anything. I would prefer to keep the ground pad solid, is there any issues with doing that? Do I put a ground on the Capacitor or resistor/etc - that goes to ground, or should I just run a trace that connects all of the grounds?

398 ~ thank you for talking a lot. I'm currently overwhelmed, just started using Diptrace and trying to get this nailed down and sent for manufacturing. I used to be a fire sprinkler cad designer and I could actually do this all day, love it, it is just the learning curve that is hitting me hard...

JLCPCB looks good, pretty cheap per 100ct. even at 2oz.

I'll check it, want to start at about 100 count.

Yes, I agree, if I was only going to do a few, I'd do it myself, or stay in the vero board realm.

Thanks for all the input. I've had quit a few set backs and now being behind on the launch, will have to reset the date. not happy that I will have to go out of the US, currently money is still money and at the present cannot budget paying 5 times more for the same product. going to change...

who are the preferred PCB manufacturers?

So far, I am pretty happy with the DC Jacks, the Neutrik jacks, and the on off on toggle switch, I've used them on a few pedals, kind of checking to see if anyone has had any issues. I have not tried the dailywell footswitch, from some of the forums I’ve read, they’ve suggested that it is...

any help, thoughts, input ~ etc. this is for a large order, balancing price and quality. I've been using Switchcraft jacks and Alpha 3PDT footswitch and need to bring the price down a bit. https://www.taydaelectronics.com/3pdt-stomp-foot-pedal-switch-fk-series-on-on.html...
