You’re right! I must have gone through a few hand sets before surrendering to this project. It was a humbling experience but it also taught me a lot about how to use my instruments. Again, I have no professional training, I’m just a regular guy trying out small projects and learning what I can and cannot do.

Thanks man! I’d love to learn more about these modding stores! Currently I source my stuff off AliExpress (sometimes Lazada/Shopee which are online platforms pretty established in my part of the world) cos there are the only sources I’m aware of. I’d love to know more about any great mod stores that sell beautiful dials/hand sets :)
