    Plague Spreader

    Looks great! With a name like 'Plague Spreader", it should have RFK Jr's initials on it... Sorry, couldn't resist.

    Jlcpcb and tariffs

    Damn straight - check this out: Multiple postal services around Europe (and possibly elsewhere) say they are suspending the shipment of many packages to the United States amid a lack of clarity over new import duties. The US didn't even provide the rules regarding all the details of collecting...

    Jlcpcb and tariffs

    HOLY SHIT, this will impact just about everything - e.g., appliances, computers, TVs, absolutely anything electronic, kitchenware, cars, you name it! This is just nuts. The cost of calculating & justifying the tariff will be so significant that it will add even more $$$ on top of the tariff...

    This Week on the Breadboard: MOSFET Driver Redux

    So this is another Boneyard circuit that I plan to build, so I want to make sure I have the correct schematic. Since the v0.6 schematic was posted, a few subsequent tweaks have been made. So I *think* the latest result looks like this, which I'll label v0.7. (changes since v0.6 are shown in...

    Deadend FX Eva (Spaceman Gemini IV)

    Here's my build. This one took a while, fitting it into the enclosure took a set of careful measurements so that everything would fit (e.g., so 1/4" jacks don't collide with the PCB, transistors or caps; etc.). Fortunately those who went before me had commented on the challenges, so I went in...

    SOLVED Cadmium Fuzz

    Any luck yet? Have you checked all the parts values? The center row of caps looks fine, but the resistor colors are difficult to read - so check those as well. Any shorts to the pots underneath? Did you use pot dust covers - aka 'pot condoms'? I also can't verify the +/- voltage wires go...

    @Chuck D. Bones and @cooder - So is this the correct final schematic?

    Replacement button for SR&D Rockman Sustainor?

    Another possible option is 3D printing a replacement button. You could search on Thingiverse, Printables, or Thangs to see if someone has already designed a replacement. What make is the switch?

    Tayda packing and shipping

    I emailed them, and it is the painting of enclosures that is causing the delays. Tayda is clearly working very hard at addressing the situation. I've ordered TONS of stuff from them in recent years, and every order has come through in excellent shape and without error. So, although I wanted my...

    Tayda packing and shipping

    I'm also seeing delays of almost 2 weeks in my last 2 orders, which never happened before in previous years. It seems to be recent, the last ~1-2 months, i.e., once the orange guy's tariffs really kicked in. i suspect they are having to do all sorts of supply chain gymnastics to avoid charging...

    1590A Tone Generator

    Mouser. There you can buy just 1, or for practically the same price get 10. So maybe you have a few left over, not tons.
