Graphics For Byzantium Flanger

They look great @dcfvgb

@BQFS I'm nearly done with the Amplifyfun template. Just need to know what drill sizes you need for the LED and DC jack

I've used their recommended sizes of 3/8" for the 1/4" jacks, 5/16" for the pots and 1/2" for the footswitch, let me know if they need changing

The grey stuff is the gloss overlay, the cutouts in the rubber stomp create a 3D effect

I got the knob functions from the picture on the product page, are they the same on your PCBs?

The function/placement of the controls are correct. Design looks fantastic!!!!

For pots, I use 7mm or 9/32 drill - 5/16 probably close enough
Jacks are 10mm or using a step-bit drill 25/64 - 3/8 probably close enough
3PDT Stomp switch 12mm, or using a step-bit drill 15/32 - 1/2" probably close enough
DC Socket 8mm or 5/16 drill
For 5mm LED (typical) I use #9 drill (close to 5mm) - use this for this pedal
For 3mm LED I use #32 drill bit (close to 3mm)
I do NOT use bezels for the leds, just a tight fit, sometimes using CA to glue in place

Thank you very much for you kind assistance. Still waiting for your PP email address....

I just looked up the knobs to find they were 6.35mm or 1/4", so I am now re-ordering all four pots to be Alpha (different mounting placement than the Tayda ones I usually order) PC mount types with 6.35mm shafts.

Okay mate I've got this far, will email Amplifyfun now for format etc

I used these 20mm Boss style knobs for the template https://www.taydaelectronics.com/boss-style-knob-black.html

Don't expect payment but I am quite skint so will be happy to accept a small, perhaps beer-sized donation :)

As an alternative to any sort of payment, to which you seem to be reluctant to accept, I have another proposition. About a year or so ago, I was on Reddit and found a guy who was giving up pedal building and had a LOT of inventory he wanted to dispose of. We reached an agreement, and I received a LOT of components, some had so many of them I will never use if I live to be 100.

If you are interested, I will gather a bunch of resistors, capacitors, and some solid-state components and send them to you at no charge including free postage. Just let me know if you are interested, furnish me your mailing address, and I will start putting together a care package for you. And I am still willing to buy you a couple of beers besides which. Just let me know (hint, hint)!

I meant that I usually order 6mm, not 6.35mm shafts. Sorry for the confusion.

I'll get onto this tomorrow

Absolutely no hurry since I had to re-order pots with the correct format from Tayda which will probably take most of the next week to arrive. But as far as letting me know your PP address and physical address (if you want a bunch of my spare components), you can do that at any time. - Bud

Looks great, but my only recommendation is to remove the 'BF-2', as that is a corporate model number.
Granted, it's long out of production, but the originals are still on the used market. Of course, you can do what you want - I'm not bashing or anything.
I know it's nit-picky. I already have a hard enough time on my conscience with cloning, that I draw the line at just putting the name one.
:LOL:

UK law is you can write what you want on your own stuff as long as it's not for sale

I've copied a couple of commercial designs for personal use. The only person it affects is me. As someone with no design background it was a good learning experience

Oh no, I did not mean any offense (and I don't really think that's how you took it).
I'm ALL FOR cloning the graphics, right down to the colors and fonts. And I totally agree that these are OURS for personal use and have no qualms about it. It's just an OCD thing for me, personally, about using the actual/orginal model numbers (even if the original is out of production). Actually, I do the same thing, sometimes, where I'll change the model number a little to make it more personal.
As I said, your graphics look great.
