    How do I solder 2.5mm jack?

    Put it in a panavise, hit the little step (to the right of the threads in the picture) with flux, tin it , tin the wire, hit it with the flux again and solder on the wire.

    Need Some CNC work

    I think a laser engraver may be a better way to tackle that. Google spit out a few interesting hits when I searched for south Florida laser engraving.

    You would prolly have better luck at a trophy shop.   Could go the DIY case badge route with it. (print the image on photo paper, cut out, cover with epoxy, finish edges, stick on with double sided tape)

    Trying to replace 3.5mm connector. Do you know which electrical component to buy?

      No. Is a panel mount jack going to fit in there? For example Mouser # 490-SJ5-43502PM

    Where are all of the builders?

      Absolutely. But in a twisted sense. I don't care if somebody said some boutique parts are not going to help performance.... I'm doing it anyways.

    Baffling Hum Issue

    Fix the grounding. Detailed troubleshooting without a schematic and photos is nearly impossible and typically = a headache for the readers.

    Falling off loose or can shove it over loose? Either way will straighten it out. Shoot me a message and I will let you know where to send it.
