Abram Kedge 🏴🇨🇦 (abramkedge@beige.party)'s status on Saturday, 04-Jan-2025 16:54:10 JST Abram Kedge 🏴🇨🇦 @foone I used the resistor colour codes when designing the part number system for Frogwood, although "natural", "olive" and later " burgundy" had to be accommodated using letters. The colour names came from the factory, and some of the mappings were a stretch, but it worked well enough!
One of our most popular colours was "Tardis"
660N0 - repeating two blue layers, black, natural, black.
