Last year's layout, we tried for vertical boards... Failed miserably. So we're doing it right this year. Especially since I'm only working with a 16x10x6 area for electronics this year.

I still have to find room for a double solenoid, though compressor and battery will have to be mounted elsewhere. I will also have to incorporate a flip lid into the design, as well as run wire... (if I ever figure out how)

You might be able to stack the speed controllers on top of each other. That would free up the room for the solenoid.

I like the idea... Quick sketch, I like something like this...

Cooling?

It's gonna get pretty hot in there.

Thanks for the thought...

I need to find last year's muffin fans... The ones this year are unbeleivably heavy.

See? Advantage of posting here... That would have gone unnoticed by me...

Thanks again.
