i cant help you with the bends on the ddd5 as i've not opened one up myself, but my tip for the wire thing is to put some different coloured electrical tape on them before you cut em, that way you just need to match the same coloured tapes and splice them back together once you've finished. i normally just use terminal blocks if they fit in the casing.

hope it helps,

bod.

Never found anything decent that can be controlled with a pot on a DDD5. As i recall every DDD5 i've ever worked on has had board connectors for the wires joining the boards together, just pull them off the top board and take it out.
