MONGREL REMAKE H4 COMPETITION

[PaulJ]

I'ma bit suspecious... @exxos you seem to be on the same time line for your boards as @rubber_jonnie .

You didn't contract RJ to build your boards... did you? I'm sure he's plenty busy on his H4 and he only builds one at a time so he can keep an eye on that pesky iron with his ninja reflexes.

@PaulJ My board along with three other people's were sent off to be assembled, I should have had them back by now really I'm getting a bit fed up of waiting, so I will maybe start building up one next week as I cannot keep on waiting around

I can imagine, do all that work and the last person to have a built unit not to mention you will most likely need to do a little troubleshooting to get things all on line.. I'm not a patient person so waiting is not me. I would be crazed by now. When you get them I hope they have great build quality.

7 days? Started 21 Nov and posted a GB6 pic 4 dec. That's 13 days.... And exxos hasn't even started yet...

We held off posting a image on the forum for about a week. We both were working on Ickys board (well icky was soldering). How do you think I was posting fixes before any sign of a booting board

- One of the rules is that we were both exempt from the competition and could not tamper with it so no matter we can not ever win this competition.

Therefore this is the real list for the competition

1. @PaulJ - 10 days
2. @PhilC - 17 days
3. @btl - 20 days
4. @kodak80 - 33 days
5. @derkom - 31 days (may be a few more)
6. @DoG - 34 days

So - @PaulJ gets the winners prize of a Flashy Clock V6 once we get one built and tested. We have also decided that all of you did an excellent job building the H4's so those above will all receive a runners up gift.

I will PM you all and get your addressees to send the prizes.

Once prizes are received we would like to see a picture of the prize next to your H4 in your build blog. Then we will also know who has the bobby prize as that will be included in the post.

Once the booby prize is revealed we will explain why

[PaulJ]

@Icky , @exxos great prize. The board was all most too good compared to the Remake. We spent months looking for solutions. Anyway appreciate the great prize.

@IngoQ's H4 board has been born at 49 days from delivery to birth

Congratulations @IngoQ will add you in as a runner up and you are eligible for a runner up prize . I will PM you for your address.

Cool, thanks

Was a lot fun to build, and admittedly my most complex soldering job since about 25 years Now I am really looking forward to the possible expansions, to make this a really mean machine some day

@exxos yes, I had seen your comments about the likely price but hadn't thought to look at the BOM for the details

Ok, finally making the time to check the BoM etc. to see what I may need to add from the store/remove from a donor...

@exxos Am I right in thinking I basically need to source all the items in the parts list but not in the BoM?

If not, how do I tell what is needed in addition to the pre-built H4 (or what is not fitted)?

[exxos]

@JezC the parts list isn't relivent, its a list before I did the BOM.. Its likely wrong / incomplete.

The latest BOM totals all the parts which will be fitted to the H4. The parts which don't have a price such as the DB19 won't be fitted. So you source those parts yourself or buy from my store.

[JezC]

Ah, great. Makes sense now.

Thanks for the clarification... will work to put together the requisite orders/list of parts to scavenge.
