1590BB top mount jacks

Hi folks,

Just wondering if someone here could point me toward a PPCB project that you've made featuring a 1590BB enclosure, top mount jacks, and (here's the important thing) clearance in the drill template for plastic enclosed jacks to clear the pots.

I have a 1590BB leftover from before Tayda started carrying the 1590BB2 and I'd like to use it, but I seem to have lost the scrap of paper with the centreline measurement I need scrawled on it. I know it's tight but possible, so if someone can point me towards one that's worked for you I would be super appreciative, thanks!

Bonus points if it's landscape, but I shall make do either way...
 
I used enclosed jacks on my duocast build. Is this what you mean?

I used enclosed jacks on these 2 1590BB builds:



Used open jacks for my Paragon but should still clear enclosed jacks:

I usually use the top jack drill template on 1590bb

I wanted to add that even if the space of the jacks are apart are not what you want using the 125b template, the vertical height works out great if you move the template around to get it where you really want.

So if you can get the spacing measured out you can always get a correctly placed hole along the y-axis
 
I'll throw this out there...


A one-knob boost or fuzz (1590A) with another 1590N1-sized circuit will fit nicely together in a landscape 1590BB.
