Well everything came in today, the encoders from US digital, the PCB and IC's from FAR and bits and peices from RS Components and Jaycar. Also got a pocketPC from a friend for a bottle of scotch. Good news is i can start soldering and MAY have it working for the local star party this saturday

...bad news is that the encoder (US digital S2) that i was taking with me to Jaycar to find suitable cables for is different to those that i actually ordered (US digital S6). So the cables i made up won't fit at all. The cable part of things is fast becoming the most troublesome. I'm open to any suggestions guys. May end up buying the cables from US digital anyhow.

I'll try get a parts list with the RS components and Jaycar part numbers up here for future box makers. 1st pic is the S2 encoder, pic 2 is the S6/
