What's on the workbench?

[Robert]

This one isn't actually on the workbench, but this seemed like the most appropriate place to post...

The top 5 reasons why I have made this Bunny Potting Form is:
1. The epoxy potting material provides a Thermal Stability for components as it acts as a heat sink for every component.
2. The 3D Bunny Filament is a shield from exterior heat sources.
3. All electronic components have a self-resonance, which is stabilized when damped in an epoxy form. Non resonating electronic components have a more focused sonic performance.
4. Knowing all the benefits aforementioned, I thought lets have some FUN and make the Potting Form inspire Pink Bunny Smiles.
5. Piracy

Although I will say this is the first time I've seen goop used as a form of art, I just don't think that little bunny is going to have the effect that was intended. Is there a guilt factor involved? "Oh no, we can't hurt the cute little bunny!"

Consider my interest piqued.

If that ain’t a plain old OKF I’ll be shocked

Damn pirates......

I'm not sure, that's a 10-turn potentiometer.... I sure as heck hope that's not a volume control.

Makes it easier to set for exactly unity ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But yeah… it sounds like a fuzzface that’s over-biased on q1 and underbiased on q2

Lmao VERRRY innovative

Just imagine the sonic stability of a marshmallow peep inside the pedal with those precisely-weighted metal knobs (help me out here, I wanna say vertex?).

Edit: What happened to the 'roll eyes' reaction?

 

[Robert]

The precision milled knobs was Free The Tone.

I'm glad someone else got the Peeps Bunny vibe from it.

The custom reactions got wiped in a XenForo update because I, despite knowing better, added them to the existing theme files instead of creating a custom reactions file. I'll get around to adding them back eventually.

I think what concerns me the most is the jack placement.... why did they have to be so close together? I guess pancake jacks are out.

...and I just realized there's no DC jack?

I was just about to comment on both of those things. I think more attention was given to the easter treats diorama than panel considerations.

5 hours later.... I'll get this trace done eventually, right?

 

[benny_profane]

What would possess someone to put a ten-turn pot on a FUZZ control of a fuzz face? Beyond using a C-taper, I’ve never once thought that that control needs more resolution.

 

[Robert]

I never thought it needed a bunny either, but what do I know?

 

[Robert]

We'll find out eventually.... It was inevitable the moment you decided to go all avant garde with the goop.

Seriously.... don't do that.

Repeat after me: Goop does not discourage "piracy" ...

 

[Robert]

Now for a couple things that actually are on the bench.

Yall weren't joking about the Octron, it's a lot of fun!

 

[benny_profane]

Ohhhhhhhh yeah OCTRON

 

[benny_profane]

How TF am I supposed to know if you are telling the truth about all those mojo components?

I mean, no one that knows what they’d be looking for are going to buy this. Gotta admire the mountain of nonsense packed into that little bunny though. Bold.

I know at least one complete idiot who is going to buy the pedal specifically because of the bunny......

 

[benny_profane]

They are a subsidiary of the Mojo peddlers that brought you Isle of Tone...

I had to look these jokers up. Wow.

At least I can see who their market is. Not so much with the Day-Glo nuclear peep infini-fuzz.
