Hi,

first of all a short introduction of myself. My name is Sebastian, I'm 23 years old and start to build megadrum in the purpose of practicing at home.

This is how far I am at the moment (sorry for some failed pics. Only a **** mobile phone cam):

I ordered Synthex's Kit 2 (I regret not to order Kit 3 at the beginning :lol: )

Ironed up the Input PCB

Nearly cleaned up PCB

Etching process intial stage:

Etching final stage:

That's it. Hope to proceed within the next days. 8-)

Nice one, Tormentor.

Let us know what happens when you switch it on for the first time.
Looking good.

Just a very small update from my side. I ruined my input board and I have to etch a new one :D

Yesterday I received my display

BTW:
After I boot up Megadrum, I shortly see "Megadrum.info (c) D.Sachkov" and then it stays at this position

Is it a normal behavior?

Thanks!
