The wiring three-ring-circus has been going for a few days now and ive lost the battle against the lion (push-pull pots).
Ive managed however to wire it...
I have been plodding away on the wiring and think ive got it done. I will test it this afternoon. But im having one of those “wow. Did i actually make this?!!” moments. As such im sharing a picture...
