Good thinking! Thank you!

Does anyone have the Lead Solder Overdrive Tayda drill template?

Anybody got Tayda drill template for the Passive A/B/Y kicking around?

parallel caps summed right. tested with larger component and they registered 5pf. Good call.

So I'm building this Lectric FX Karaoke Chorus pcb and I go to the test my tiny 5pf ceramic disk capacitor and the TC-1 says no component or broken component. So I pulled out the big gun and tested them on the DCA55. Same thing. No component. The build doc calls for 4.7pf capacitor. Should...

I’ve got mine 90% populated with what I have on hand. Putting together a sizable tayda order to finish this one and a few other projects up.

I also looked Wingspan up after he posted about it. Looked pretty cool. I might grab it if I ever find some friends to play it with haha

@rwl may have beat you to first build report of the year, and he wins at birds... but you win for best wiring so far in 2026! Nice!

What’s this little two pad 1144 thing under the top left IC? It’s on the God City Thing that should not be pcb https://kurtballou.com/docs/N.E.W.%20TTTSNB%20Main%20PCB%20Build%20guide.pdf

Is there a way to delete Tayda drill templates? I have a bunch saved and some of them are incorrect but I can't figure out how to delete them, and I don't want to bother Tayda. They will be like "did you triple check?"

I hope you picked up all the Mr. Black pcbs during one of Roberts spite sales at least. I think he was selling them for fiddy cents a pop last time.

I probably finished around 30-40 PCBs this year. As far as top 5 circuits? In no particular order, I will start with: Chop Shop: Killer Overdrive. I only built it because everyone said it kicked ass. I haven't boxed mine up yet, but I knew it was a keeper the second I hit the first chord...

Scrotum neck was my nickname in high school

Nuther great build!

Excellent build! I also really like that artwork.
