It’s a good question. Yes, 1/4 Watt carbon comp resistors will work fine in this circuit. Do a search of carbon comp resistors on Mouser. Then narrow down your choices by picking 1/4 watt power and 7mm length. Ohmite and other brands will show up. You can ‘fit’ larger resistors by standing...

Remember the resistor is used to limit the current running through the LED. Think of the Led and resistor as being in a closed loop circuit. As long as the resistor is somewhere in that circuit, Ohms law states Voltage = Current x Resistance, so at a constant voltage if the resistance goes up...

Forgive me, but to which project are you referring to?

I would get the 3PDT wiring board from PEDALPCB as well. It will be neat and much simpler.

Beautiful work. The wiring is impeccable. I have to get started on mine.

They do make ceramic caps that have 5mm lead spacing, you just have to search for them. I have a preference for film caps in the audio section of any build. Remember that not all caps on the pcb are in the audio section. Some are strictly for power filtering or other functions. Many people...

PS. The 4 12.7 mm bumpers are indeed the dust covers for the 16mm pot. I honestly don’t know what the 1 transparent bumper is for.

A general rule for capacitor Shopping is: 1. 1pf - 999pf = ceramic caps or mlcc or silver mica. 2. 1nf - 1uf = Film capacitor (box caps or other types) 3. >1uf = electrolytic capacitors (aluminum or tantalum) Please note that you could buy a film cap > 1uf or buy a silver mica cap > 999pf, or...

The schottkey is a polarity protector. I assume you are asking this question because the repetitive peak reverse voltage is 20v in the 1n5817. my recommendation would be to use a 1n5818 or 1n5819 instead. Can you jumper the 1n5817? Yes, but you will lose that reverse polarity protection.

Did you actually calculate the resistance power wattage needed at this point in the circuit? I don’t know what the voltage or current is at this point, but for a 33ohm resistance, it doesn’t take much voltage to burn that resistor up.

Hi digitalsea, It is correct that the LDR is a device that will give you variable resistance. It’s important to understand how a LDR works. https://www.watelectronics.com/light-dependent-resistor-ldr-with-applications/ Take a look at this site for an informative look at LDR mechanism and...

Absolutely phenomenal!!! I would love for mine to look half as nice as this. ??

I would sand those nice, smooth holes down to the bare metal to ensure proper grounding. -Steve.
