I did Mint. I socketed the flavor components so I could switch. So far I am very happy with Mint, and don't think I need any more gain, which would be the main reason to switch.

I finished up my build a few days a go, and have had any chance to play with the many settings. Overall the build was straight forward, and the pedal worked straight off the workbench without the need for debugging, which always make me happy. The one hiccup I had was that 4 of the pots I got...

If it's only going to have one knob, it better be a big one!

This was a straight forward build. I should have looked closer at the size of the electrolytic, but I got them to fit. I've only played through it a few times, but so far I like. I used hammer stencils, but they are hard to read. The boost is transparent, and does a great job pushing my Fillmore...

Thanks. Yes the Boss switches are overpriced but even worse the too big!

For a double switch I was under the impression that you need TRS. Saturn switches says Boss uses normally closed spdt switches. The question remain is how to wire them together?

Okay, so normally open, but how do you wire to together?

Awesome. Does it use normally open or closed momentary switches. I want to build a two switch box, how did there do you write them together?

Hi all. I'd like to build a Boss FS-5U style footswitch to control my RC-10R, but surprisingly have not been able to find a wiring diagram online. The closest I've found is this, but I'd prefer to build it without the switches and I'm not clear to what is needed. I'm pretty sure this will be an...

I guess that makes the decision easy!

I've been running my Filmore 25 at the edge of breakup, and I'm looking for good boost pedal to push the amp. Ideally something that will play well with humbuckers and single coils, as well TS type pedals.

I love my Octarock and the only thing that could make it better would be separate switches to control octave up and octave down. There is no schematic so I'm not sure how to proceed. Anyone have ideas?

The truth is, I broke the cap that was in there and didn't have a suitable replacement on hand. I read (in this post) that you didn't need them. Next time I place an order I will get something to put in there. Any recommendations?

Yes I put a wire in place of the cap.

I used this diagram from Fralin but left out the tone cap:
