I'm done with the fixture that I'm using to get all the mosfets placed right on the baseplate. Then the mosfet legs have to go through the power section. Maybe by tomorrow. Man, that stupid black board was like 10 hours of gcode writing today. And our stupid heater isnt' working, so it's been friggen freezing in the house since November! dang it! hahaha


Hurray the friggen finished product. I would punch it in the head if it wasn't so hard and useful.


The plan is to have the 18 mosfets' legs sticking through all the holes in the power section, but the mosfets have to be clamped down before that, so alignment would be an issue, getting all the stupid legs to go through the holes, so I use this black thing to tighten the bolts to clamp the mosfets down (through the big holes in it) and then once all of them are in place and through their correct holes, I take off the stupid black thing, and put on the power board, and solder them into place.
