    Buddy's Breadboard and Circuit Design Notes

    Definitely gonna try this one! The Ultrastoner was a great recommendation, totally right about the EQ on that one. Have you checked out the Mountainking Megalith? Think you'd dig it!

    The curious case of the three 4558s

    Maybe just a little "crunch"..

    The curious case of the three 4558s

    So.. AFTER you wore it around a few days and then to find it mangled in your kicks, you said " I gotta try that out real quick.." ?:geek: Did it add Mojo?

    Heat sink to prevent wire melting

    Silicon insulated, pre-tinned solved all the problems I've ever suffered with hook-up wire.

    Weighing down a PCB holder

    I know its not great, but a "c" clamp or wood clamp could help out alot..

    Does this mean this diode is bad.

    More parts= Moar Mojo??

    Vero build help (Mind Warp)

    Possible short on solder side legs 6-7 of 2399? Another on solder side legs 5-6 of TLO72?

    Bypassing transistor

    I believe you connect gate, source, and drain together. If I'm wrong, I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will be along shortly. With no schematic, it's at best a guess from me..

    Stereo Harmonic Tremolo

    In my experience, as you get older, just touching wood is not enough anymore. I dont know anything about LDR's , though.

    Bellum MK1 Questions

    Seem to remember R27 is replaced with a jumper, not sure. I think I might be the source of the "100n" advice. At the time, I was breadboarding a lot, and had some incorrect values other places, so 100n seemed closest. After replacing for original values, 680n sounds pretty good to me; I say...

    Multiple LED’s

    Leds have minute differences in turn on voltage. The one that is lowest, turns on first. Once an led starts conducting, any current more than the turn on current is facing essentially no resistance to ground. It cannot then turn on another led. Running a separate power wire and resistor is best...

    Stuff

    I never went farther in looking for a better set. When I use ribbon cable now I just use a utility knife to separate the ribbon, then use a good pair of Klein's to strip them individually..

    Stuff

    Guys, I gotta tell you, I bought the EXACT same strippers, the yellow Amazon set, and they were terrible! Incidentally, I got em for the same thing, stripping ribbon cable,and it would just maul the ends of the wires. The plastic jaws were warped slightly. And no amount of adjustment would work...

    JWST

    And remember, when you look at those pics, very few of those points of light are stars- they are entire galaxies from billions of years past..o_O

    Seabed Delay with space for an extra 10K resistor

    For the " I wanna play it now" answer, I'd say put it in. Your right, it's not in the doc., and IME, the pcb rules over the doc. If it turns out you don't need it, just clip it of the board. I'm sure someone that knows better will be along shortly...

    JWST

    I remember I was in my teens when the Hubble Deep Field was published. Few things, let alone pictures, have effected me more. Here's hoping Webb can snap a pic with the same incredible wonder. (P.s. - It will.) Can't wait for the 12th!!
