i like the whole fact that it is all in one area .......you dont have to worry about all the wires on the backplate

yeah me too, ran into a snag, I have an older board and the solenoid wires go to the end that one of the switch wires end up (instead of the side of the board like all my others) and now Im not sure wich two holes the solenoid went to

That sounds like the very first version board, which are.. well.. not very good. :) You'd be better off getting a new v1e boardset, and then modifying it, or I can supply you with the whole thing already modified.

This is so true for the Side Switch Mephys.

The ones at Radio Shack are too large for the side switch style Mephistos. Both Edwin and I have a few of the correct size switches in stock.
