Sounds like some good grub. Not too far off from what’s on my stove top: sausage, sauerkraut, and potatoes.

I just opened a pretty sweet package from @fig today. Apparently this came from me a few days back but I didn't see it because I'm blind and didn't see it sitting on top of my computer.

The Fig swag goes remarkably well with my 60's kitchen countertop!

Thanks, Tim.

Is that a gold surface finish on those pads? Also is that a new/unreleased board? Don’t recognize anything with those max/min/hi/low/vol resistor/capacitor labels.

Been dogsitting for the past week, and didn’t go home at all yesterday, so I’ve got two or three days of mail that I missed. Got my Sculpteo order, including a shim I designed for the switches for my Bass VI (it also has a slight thickness for the full plate size to shim the full plate to be flush with the new thicker pickguard). Also got a cheap assortment of carbon comp resistors (only one pictured here, but it came in two containers) to use as bullsh*t mojo bits in a few simple builds, as well as some sketchy optoisolators from eBay, and some cmos chips (not pictured) for my parasit builds from the fantastic @Diynot !

Looks like a Frost Drive to me.

that checks out. I figured it was YATS-based based on the W20K, but all of the C10k and stuff threw me off. Looks like a cool variation on the TS circuit– just added it to my 'eventually' list

With that one, you can pretty much be done with TS circuits. I’d recommend bumping that ahead of any others you have planned.

Yup, that's it @Harry Klippton

Nope, it's the Frost Drive. My kitchen countertop just makes everything look super fancy.

Shockingly, my build queue is absurdly long but doesn't contain a single Tubescreamer variant except for a 3-in-1 combo board that has a TS along with 2 other circuits. I just really enjoy dual gang pots lmao

I hope the next swag package includes a cutting board for that countertop!

I should have a fret dressing file from stewmac but apparently their $11 shipping is also crazy slow. Hate buying from them
