I went and bought a used Dunlop Cry Baby today,Just for the shell.Is there somewhere you can buy a pre-made Clyde McCoy pcb?I thought about just using perfboard,or veroboard and going that route.Any ideas what i should do?Also,I have a dunlop fasel inductor.Should i use that one,or get one of the whipple inductors?The Halo's are made in England.Maybe one of thoses?

I'm a little confused ???Are you saying i can use one of the dunlop pcb's to make the McCoy?

We have some nice 0.22uf Tropical Fish Capacitors in last week. We also have some 4uf nonpol. electrolytic capacitors. These measure very close to 4uf, not all over the place like others. Thank You for your positive comments.

Are those 4uf nonpolars axial or radial?.  What is the voltage rating?.

Thanks,

Al, those are axial lead capacitors at 100 volts, but they are very stable, most being much less than the +/- 10%. tolerance.

Could you please give me the dimensions of those 4uf caps?.

The dimensions are 3/4" x 3/8".  It sounds like a lot but I did a mock vintage Clyde McCoy board and there aren't any major size issues. Terence.
