But the short answer is they’re probably 1N34A.

Check out the build doc for the Vulcan project at the Aion Electronics site. It’s also based on the Fox tone machine. I haven’t compared the schematics, but the build docs give some info on the diodes.

I started building DIY pedals less than a year ago, and have little background in electronics. So, FWIW... As a noob, I found that build docs can be really an important resource. Aion and Madbean both produce really detailed build docs. Even if you don't get a PCB there, the build docs are...

Okay, that makes sense. Having the jack sit inside the enclosure alleviates the issue with precisely aligning the holes also. I think I'll try it out and see how I feel about the appearance.

Thanks. I’ll check out the doc. I assumed the DC jack was this type, which I thought was meant to sit flush with the outside of the enclosure.

I really like the idea of the Power I/O Module. I built an Aion kit that used this approach, and really liked how neat it made the wiring. The only hesitation I have is cutting the square opening, and also locating all the holes in the enclosure precisely. Anyone have any advice for how to...

Great looking build. Love the graphics. I recently built a Green Russian also, and absolutely love the sound.

Thanks...you're quick ;)

Does anyone happen to know if the Tayda pre-drilled enclosure will work for the Kinetic Fuzz? The Kinetic listing on PedalPCB isn't tagged "3 knob, Type 1" like other enclosures are that work with Tayda pre-drilled. But it looks like it should work - although I'm just going by board layout - I...

Looks great. I bought the PCB and have this in queue (although I might not get to it for a while). I really like the knobs you used.

I just built this project last week and also am getting no sound when the pedal is on. Have checked everything visually and it all looks good. I’m going to check the jack grounds next....

I’m also planning a cobalt build and was wondering about this pot. I came across this page on diystompboxes that looks pretty useful: https://www.diystompboxes.com/analogalchemy/emh/emh.html. It has some info related to approximating potentiometer values.

Okay, I'm in....

I'm thinking about building the Paragon project. From the description and the schematic, it seems that it could be useful to use external switches in place of the 4 position DIP switch on the PCB. Also, perhaps there's use in using external pots rather than the trim pots? Has anybody else...

I started a Tommy yesterday, so will be curious about what you find out about this.
