Homemade gauge test tool, C-3826

I guess it all depends on what you have lying around the shop.

That and the switch. It's center off, which dictated the parallel arrangement, as well as some of the resistors I had.

The other problem with Radio Sh$$ parts is their resistor selection is really pretty poor. It was just about as cheap to find parallel combos as it would have been to find resistors individually, which themselves would have to be combinations due to both selection and wattage.

And I could have ordered 'em form Mouser or somewhere, too.
