I find it funny how I can have close to 1000 components, yet I never seem to have enough parts to make a project. :icon_eek:

I know he's Italian, I'm just not sure what he means by "horny'.  I mean, I've gotten excited by good tone, just not that excited.  :icon_biggrin:

Ha ha ha- I thought we were dealing with some kind of a "lost in translation" issue, like when I have to order in Italian at a restaurant and ask for 'Pene' instead of 'Penne' (With unpleasant results) but no, you meant exactly what I thought you did.   ;D

You asked for "PENE all'arrabbiata"?! (angry d.ick)  :icon_eek: That would be PRICELESS!!!

(arrabbiata is a hot pepper tomato sauce to eat pasta with.)

Nice looking man!

Is it a double sided board, the picture leads me to think it is, but then I can be pretty simple sometimes.

Is it a hi voltage Nixie type of power supply??? if so do you acctualy need the cooling fan for the inductor coil

mini pots.

No the other do-hickies,  not the mini pot.

Tubes?  ;D  No, seriously- the black things?

It could probably do without the fan. I did try my Tremler tube pedal without a fan, but it does get warm (probably the heat from the tubes that gets cought in the enclosure) so I decided to go with the fan, though the inductor itself does not get that warm.

It's all singlesided, but with parts mounted on both sides. Here's an example:

The do-hickys ???
Not shure what you mean, but here's what sticking up from the enclosure, stompswitch with a ledindicator to the left, next a row of pots and finally the tubes with the protection bars.

Oh, and here's a gut shot i added:
