In the project pdf (http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/pdf/ggg_lm3886_amp.pdf) it says 10 to 12 turns of wire, so I wrap the wire around the actual resistor? If not, how big should each turn be?

Thanks,

I built a couple of these and I used a pencil or was it the handle from a wooden spoon?   Then I used some RTV Silicone stuff that hardens to a rubbery consistancy.  I put the RTV inside it until it was sort of oozing out.   Then, onec hardened, I cleaned the ends of the copper wire and soldered the resistor in parallel to the ends.  Voila.   Not sure how it works, but I tested mine here at work for the inductance and it was quite accurate.  Marcos could chime in on this, I sent him one, not sure if he ever finished the amp.
Peace!
