Show me your 1590A enclosures/pedals...

[rocklander]

Another one, this time a surface mount/through-hole hybrid version of the Skreddy Screwdriver.

Absolutely gorgeous. Love the graphics! and 5 pots in a 1590A... yeesh

5 is okay I guess...  there's room for more :-p

Actually, the Screwdriver wasn't too bad.  The 1590A Shoot The Moon/Little Angel combo pedal was much worse as it used 6 pots and a 3PDT toggle to go along with all the standard hardware.  That was a tight fit.

Tight fit you say?   

[pickdropper]

Yeah, that's a special kind of suffering there.  :-)

[Perrow]

Where will you fit the battery?

[haveyouseenhim]

Where will you fit the battery?

It was supposed to be a Maestro FZ-1 that runs on 3V, so I did have room for a 3V button cell, but I was having trouble with the circuit. So instead I switched to a Harmonic Percolator. I just checked, and I have enough room for an A23 12V battery!

If someone implies that I cant do something I have to prove them wrong.

Don't forget the A27, slightly smaller than the A23.

Just a link to my build of a Superfly

grrrr... I'll say it again... I hate you Pelle

I guess I have to build it now

[Mustachio]

nice work man ! that 1590a slant is awesome! hows the switch working now that you got it all together like that? It looks pretty solid!

It works great. It's a very soft switch. So much so that you can't feel any 'click' with your foot. I like it. 

Did you see the video of its construction?

[Mustachio]

Yeah the first video at least where you show the parts and the method. Is there a new video of it in action after you jb welded it? It looks awesome I wanna see more of it.

I been working on using some momentary switches and a lil circuit to make a soft switch. Still working out what to use on the top of the pedal to push the small momentary. I have a few ideas but haven't had a chance to try em out yet.

[haveyouseenhim]

Just filmed it to show switch pressure and construction.  Will have it up later.

Fixed a few things on the wiring diagram today, it had two wires mislabeled and one missing, should be ok now

I would be honored if anyone would build one, but fully expect no one to be that crazy.

[Perrow]

Tetris skills does come in handy though

[haveyouseenhim]

I cant build it right now because of parts ordering limitations. But I definitely do it at some point.

Any special part you're missing? I have extras of a few of the "special" parts for the Superfly.

A tip of the hat to you, Sir.  Well done.

Tubes, 9mm pots, 1590a, high voltage caps, transformer, Q1+Q2, uf4004, and inductor.  Pretty much everything
