  For sound, I'm awful thankful for stuff like speakers and connectors, they may be trickier to build than they look !
   Then
  1. Tube Amp: [amplification allows sound 1 to come out of the speaker, below, 2 and 3 depend on 1.
  2. Fuzzface: RG and others used this circuit to try to teach me, for that alone it holds a strong bond, this ~led to allowing #1's to get put together. 
  3. Antique Pine cabinet, wood floor, walls and some angle ceiling, these combinations of related substrates really helps sound sound more interesting / less irritating IME.

 Not exactly stompboxes, but hopefully close enough :)

1. (my first playable) lefty Strat (when I was 14)
2. 2xEL34 tube 50W head (when I was around 20)
3. 2xEL84 "Cute 15" tube 15W head (modded TinyTerror clone) (when I was 33.. which was this year ;))

1: A true bypass looper with two bypassable loops and possibilitys for feedback. A quick build, and superversatile.
2: Bazz Fuss. Great sounding fuzz. Use the blendable input cap from the Bazz Fuss deluxe.
3: Orange Sqeezer. Subtle but great sounding compressor.

  Yea, I had typed
 LHC,
 and Hubble Telescope into this thread at one point...
 "The Universe"...but that term, like many others, has become somewhat less defined, containing 'ill defined complexities', it used to seem to be much simpler.
 The Jury is still out !

so then R.G... what were your 3 favorite builds?   :icon_lol:
3 favorite pedals to build:

1.  PT-80 w/ extra effects loop and delay time LED indicator
2.  Tufnel!  Still finishing but a fun, easy build.
3.  My first real build- a buzz box with all kinds of options.  Really got me into fx big time.

3 favorite pedals that i've built to use:

1.  PT-80
2.  Uglyface
3.  Modified Boss DS-1.  Not really built, but heavily modified.
My thoughts exactly :D
