Circuit Schematics with little intro. and how I ended up in the Bedini Circuit: Most folks who have little experience in electronics aren't able to read schematics let alone soldering components onto a circuit board to get a working gadget. I am one of them. I am a Swiss Tool and Die Maker, have therefor little knowledge in electronics. Looking at a schematic, it is evident that applying the proper mechanical and practical technique one can't possibly work it correctly without experience and proper schooling. Soldering components through a board did not work for me. I remember John's comment, the closer everything is soldered together, the better it works. Not until I omitted the board did it finally work. Once I figured out by trial and error, how to solder up the John Bedini Circuit, I made drawings for easy visualizing of the different soldering joints and component arrangements.
