Iguana means:

I need to repeatedly hit Phil and/or whine until he does it for me, so I can concentrate on making it pretty.

She's very good, actually..

I'm taking all the usual stuff plus a short course RE (bloody school), Electronics, Music, French and Geography.

PCB Wizard can be a bit cr@p at times, damn thing couldn't figure out my electronic dice (astable with decade counter linked to 6 LEDs) circuit made in crocodile clips so now our teacher has forced us to do it by hand and I'm too lazy.
Stupid cheap program...

Yup, so does ours..

It'll work. I will make it work.

Because I'm great. Surely that's grounds enough?

All of the written coursework?! We've only done stage 1. That's all finished and stuck down..

We use PCB wizard too, I already have a PIC chip board layout done, so I just need to edit it slightly and program the chip.

Yeah, I use crocodile clips, then I import the circuit into PCB wizard. It's actually an easy way to plan your circuit layout.

I think mine's overly complicated..

Yeah, it sounds it. I'm still in the planning stages at the mo, i've done all of the written coursework for it, just planning the circuit.

I'm using an ICC 555 timing chip, well, two actually, with a 7 segment display. Fairly simple, compared to the Effects pedal! :D
