Recently got access to a UV printer (yeaaaah!), so I did a Sunn Model T preamp build with my PCB :





There are more infos on my blog about it: http://www.coda-effects.com/2017/12/black-hole-sunn-model-t-preamp.html
The UV printer was a lot a fun and fairly quite easy to use, I am quite amazed by how easy and efficient these machines are!

Question: would you know where to find the screws that are inside knobs? The knobs I used did not have them when I used them so I just took the screws from other knobs... But I would like to be able to order some, but I do not know where to find it!

I would love it if Arrow sold them.  I bet the multiple layers of anti-static protection and other materials that they'd pack something like that in would be amazing!

This dang thread is going to make me broke I bought a CNC machine and a laser engraver because of the amazing builds on here, now apparently I need a UV printer Off to eBay....

2nd build of 2018. After a long time, I finally got to build an Univibe (actually it's an The Depths by EQD). Layout is from effectslayouts.blogspot.com, artwork done using dryfilm. There's an error in the artwork, I mistakely switched rate and depth labels .

[vigilante397]

Error or not, it's a great looking build inside and out

[Marcos - Munky]

Thanks a lot!

I needed a bunch of grub screws for some fancy knobs I had, ended up at a screw and bolt supply place locally, with a sample of what I needed, there are a myriad of thread options so a sample is a must, they ended up ordering in some for me special, hex key was all they could get, but my problem was solved. i can't imagine ordering online unless you know exactly what they are.

so head to your local industrial area.

CE-2 clone (Madbean Pork Barrel) finally done.  It's been built for a while but waiting for the MN3007 and MN3101 to arrive.  Works great, no noise issues, I was a little worried because I put the jacks under the board and didn't use shielded wires (very short runs).  Something to be said for using a tried and true PCB.

So for the full-on 80's Cheese experience I stuck my Rat clone in front, and it actually sounds really cool.  Very Replacements.





(My next build to finish up, tonight or tomorrow, will be all black)

And here it is, slightly modded OCD clone.  Still haven't decided which opamp I like best, but right now it has the proper TL082 in the socket.  My first build without Switchcraft jacks (gasp!), these are Neutriks.  Cheap.  Had to get creative to ground the enclosure, soldered a wire to the foot switch's star washer.

Any chance we can get a pic of both of them side by side? I feel like that would make me happy

[thermionix]

would make me happy

Well if that's all it takes, how can I refuse?



Yes the white one is bigger than the black one.  Is that wrong?  Does that make me a bad person?  Maybe the black one is just more efficient.  Before we read too much into it all, the one I'm building tonight is light purple.

I'm easy to please Granted the aesthetic would have been improved if they were the same size, but I still dig them.

Reminds me of the "too beaucoup" scene in Full Metal Jacket.(NSFW)

"No boom boom OCD clone"

the big 2k therm!

reminds me of the pete and dud sketch where pete has to learn the piano by next week. all he knows is "the black ones are louder".

And here's the light purple one.  Probably obvious, but it's a Fuzz Factory clone.





I broke a lot of rules with this build.  Didn't breadboard first.  Didn't audition the transistors, which are all salvaged from 1960's equipment.  Sloppy, inefficent perfboard layout.  Sloppy wiring.  Five pots handwired underneath the board is not such a great plan.

But I got lucky and it works as intended (whew!).  Q hFE's are (approximately) 155, 95, and 135, inspired by an old thread I found with Joe Gagan and a friend of his discussing such details.

This thing is fun as hell, an instant favorite.  Besides crazy noises, some seriously good fuzz tones, and the guitar-volume cleanup is the best of any fuzz I've built, by far.

How could you find 2N3904 with hFE of 155?

It's not a 2N3904.  Actually I don't know what it is.  Q1 and Q2 are house numbered pulls from a 1967 Silvertone amp.  I know Q2 was made by RCA because it has their EIA code on it, but I don't know the type.  Q1 seems similar to 2N2222A.  Q3 is a Toshiba 2SB56, pulled from an old Japanese walkie talkie.  Mojo dojo.

Here's my EH LPB-1 clone.
First pedal I've built in about a year, do something simple was the right choice. Lol.
Artwork was done with a cheap crappy dremel knockoff, unsteady hands and a few breaks to settle the nerves.
Had a couple of goes.  It sounds great. I put a 5089 in it cos that's all I had.
