Nice build and quite entertaining build report! Mike

There are some good tutorials on YouTube on how to use these products (mostly in the context of scale modeling but the actual methodology of use is the same). I suggest you watch them - while they are not hard to use, there are times when using a little too much can be problematic. It's also...

Looks to me like air has gotten in under the decal via the holes. Recommend using a rubber squeegee to squeeze the air/water out the best you can (short strokes toward the hole, aiming to push the air/water out the hole), then apply a decal solvent such as MicroSol or MicroSet to cause the...

Thanks! Here you go. Mike

Okay, that enclosure is just super-cool. Don't get me wrong, you've done a great build overall and the demos are much appreciated. But that enclosure....damn. M

I hope this proves how loyal I am to you, @Robert, and how much I want to support your business for all of the great things you have done: Just today, I amended my will to add an instruction to my heirs, no matter how many generations in the future it may be, to buy your version of the EQD Swiss...

I think it looks amazing! Great job! Mike

Super clean, both inside and out!

Well, here is my late, unhelpful input: Before their recent redesign, the MadBean forums used to host a subforum for Lectric-FX support. There was a (somewhat inactive) thread called “Karaoke Chorus Mods” and one of the mods was to lower the vibe speed (at its current settings, I find it fairly...

I believe this is the first GuitarPCB board I’ve ever built. I already have a couple of “sort of“ vibes – there is one on my Lectric-FX Karaoke Chorus and another quasi-vibe on my PPCB Circulator - but I wanted a dedicated build. At the same time, I really wasn’t up for the hassle of dealing...

This is the good, scientific explanation. My unscientific explanation is: Rangefinder sounds good being fed directly by the guitar and before a buffer, and sounds like absolute shit after a buffer. M

If it’s a powder coated enclosure, only the top – the rest is already glossy enough and I’m looking just to protect the top decal from scratching off. If I’m working with a raw aluminum enclosure that I have polished up, I will either do the sides as well or I will do just the top - depends on...

Thank you! I use this – I buy it at Walmart. I can’t say I have any specific reason for preferring it over any other brand – I just picked it up once and it worked well so I stuck with it. Mike

Either that or they've changed their formulation.

Let’s just say today was a bit fraught. Still something different about this glue mixture. I applied the decal and cooked it for the first bake for half the time at 230° (six minutes. The film came off but the ink did not adhere in spots. So I used some acetone and rubbing alcohol to weaken it...

I do all my curing in the oven.

Hey, just a possible word of caution. The last batch of film free decal I got, the glue seemed to cure much more quickly than before (meaning that it was much harder to peel off the film off and clean the excess glue after the initial curing then usual). Similarly, when I did the second bake to...

Thank you all – I’ll check out the components you’ve each listed a little later and report back. M

Even easier – I just stick a CR 2032 watch battery between the two leads to see if the LED lights before I put it on the board. That battery is low powered enough that you don’t even need the resistor.

Here’s the very first page of the schematic. I’ll also attach the actual full schematic, all 9 million pages of it, just in case anyone wants some light reading.
