Super excited for my first build. All the parts came in, and I started soldering yesterday. I got my work cut out for me, I ordered all 1/8 watt resistors for some future builds, and those things are tiny!
Resistor #100 calls for a 4k7. It looks like I received a packet of 5k6 Ohm resistors instead of the ordered 4k7's. I'm no pro... but 0.9 Ohm differential sounds pretty small to me, plus it's for the LED. I got a bunch of different LEDs with my order (why? for funsies), so I bet I could just swap around whichever LED looks the best with the 5k6 resistor? What does the hive mind think?
The best zoom I could muster:
(green / blue / black / silver / brown = 5k6 Ohm @ 1%, right?)
(yellow / violet / black / silver / brown = 4k7 Ohm @ 1%)
Thanks for the help, pals!
