Yeap, Ratshack is your friend. Well if you are going to do a DIY try to find an cheaper alternative to ratshack since they charge you alot for every little thing. Personally i think using the 170 board is much nicer then 150. 170 you dont have to make all those jumpers.

Btw, thanks eveyrone.

yea it cost me around 20 at newark. Initially i thought it was free shipping. When i got the package after 2-day air, they charged my credit card another 15 bucks. So much for that. Over all I am pretty satisfied with the cmoy. I had to become a little creative with the 170 since tangent did'nt have it laid out well enough like he has the 150. But if you are a nerd like i am, you should be able to figure it out using his 150 circuit layout. Feel free to ask me if you got questions, you can always post here or on head-fi:)
