you can get those from Jaycar as well $1.20 per in quantities of 10 or more. shipping is about $7 to the states but you more than make up for it by paying half for the knob.

Here's my first atempt at putting anything other than paint on an enclosure:

Thank you. ;D I used a very simple treble rolloff. The pot is 5K.

Here's my latest rehousing;
After I turned my Tonebender into a Facebender it needed a larger enclosure.

KILLER looking Ruby; love the look.

Here's an abreviated Trotsky Drive/Electra Overdrive - with the knobage controlling collector bias; Tropical Fish swimming both to and fro in this one:



And the outside (with AC Booster companion):



This is a Hammond 1590A enclosure; the LED is next to the 3PDT and the top of the dome is flush with the top of the enclosure.

Cute little pedal there.  :icon_wink:
Must have been fun to fit all those components in such a ridiculously small space ?
What is that black ring in the middle left hand side of it (beneath the circuit board) ?

beatstrat

The black ring you see is a rubber filler for a hole that's there.  In another life, this enclosure was a switchable loop - didn't use it any longer - wanted to build something in it - one too many holes, etc.

This is my Brian May Treble Booster with a 6 way input capacitor selector rotary switch.  It is a great sounding pedal.

What makes a Tonebender different from a Facebender? Whats the mini toogle do?

Basically it's a Tonebender MKII. The toggle switch allows you to bypass the Tonebender boost section (the first transistor). With this transistor out you basically have a Fuzz Face. Very nice feature for those who like to save some space on their pedalboard.  :icon_wink:

Damn it!

I am in the process right now of build a MKII and a FF.

Its a mod that basically makes the Tonebender switchable to a Fuzz Face...

The schematic can be found in my gallery, at http://www.aronnelson.com/gallery/d/17283-1/FACE-BENDER.GIF

Nice work ! Glad youre liking it !

Oops I forgot to give credits to Dragonfly...
Thanks again Andrew!  ;)

Great work everyone! Really inspiring  :o
You just re-lit the spark in me. I was quite busy writing my thesis and settling down in my first job. Besides gigging with my band, of course...
But now I can already hear my parts bin and soldering iron calling me from down in the basement... "use us, uuuuuse us...;D

Here's my humble contribution to this thread:
It's a foXX tone machine I built about half a year ago. I found a bag full of mirror pieces in a arts&crafts store. Looks quite cool on stage with both LEDs lit up (blue and amber)!

> Lorenz <




Krinor

Very cool idea.
Can you post a picture with power on ?

ambulancevoice

guttiwuts? for any chance?

Here's a picture with the LEDs on. I should probably change the current-limiting resistor before the blue LED.. It's almost too bright.




@ambulancevoice: I'm assuming guttiwuts = guts? ... and I'm assuming you're referring to me  :)
I'm almost ashamed.. it's really crammed in this enclosure -- looks nasty. It's all stripboard. I took the layout over at fuzzcentral, cut the board in two pieces, connecting the necessary traces with wires and stacked both parts.


Krinor

Wow, you've really got a lot of stuff going on in there!  :icon_biggrin:
