I've just started a layout rework, known circuit that could use an alternative layout, but boy, there's 40'ish components, not a lot of space and constraints on the placements of certain things, I've got my work laid out for me.

Reading this brought a tear to my eye...

this ain't the 1590A contest! I hope mine fits in a BB. Hell, I hope I actually build mine in time.   

Ordered some F4 on ebay, then noticed the seller was out of town until November. Slow down dumb a$$!

It's not a 1590A, but choices made puts constraints on where on board components are as well as where I place connections to off board components, I've done some work on it and things start to fall into place

Over the last 10 months or so, I have come to this conclusion:

In order to become good at doing layouts, you must first become a master at doing bad layouts.

I'm still working on the second part

I'm a student of crappy layout-ing. One project I've been working off and on for months. Still, I find it one of the most rewarding elements of DIY electronics. Hope to see lots more layouts in this contest, including my own if I can get 'er done.

At least one of yours will make it into the contest. I start my final assembly first thing tomorrow.
