    Component hoarders, what and why?

    I find myself starting to accumulate germanium diodes like D9e, 1n34a, D2d. Some I'll probably never crack open from its ziplock bag.

    Component hoarders, what and why?

    As I’ve been getting back into building pedals, I’m finding myself buying components that I don’t need per se but because it is rare or “magical” that I may or may not need in the future. So for you collectors, ie hoarders, what components are you holding onto? For market research 👀

    Tayda UV Printing

    In Affinity Designer, it is called "Subtract" -- LAYER/GEOMETRY/SUBTRACT. You are subtracting, cutting out, the top curve path from the bottom curve path. Once you do, you'll end up with a modified curve path on the bottom. The top is still retained so you will need to hide it or delete it to...

    Looks great! Do you think this could fit in a standard BB enclosures?

    Tayda UV Printing

    If anyone wants to export Affinity Designer files for Adobe Illustrator, there's a YouTube video that shows you how. Honestly speaking, its a hassle.

    Dual Drive

    I have both on my pedalboard, however I don't use them together. It doesn't work for me -- Informant into SoB, too harsh for my ears. On the other hand, Fuzz (aka fuzzface type) into SoB sounds really really good -- how I use it. Some people also feed Rat (Informant) into a Big Muff, although I...

    Removing Zener diode on v1 Duocast PCB

    Let me preface by saying that I've been taking my time building this thus still have the original v1 pcb. After much forum thread perusing, I decided to remove the 15v zener diode as 1) newer builds don't include this, and 2) I realized that I put a different version than what is listed...

    Tayda UV Printing

    By the way, your preference might defer, but I did a matte UV on a matte enclosure and it was super dull looking. I think I may spray it with semi gloss lacquer.

    Tayda UV Printing

    Yes, if you just want a flat matte look than no need for the Gloss layer. Just the straight Color layer...

    Hopefully, you can see the "bump" from the Gloss-V.

    Tayda UV Printing

    I've done both Gloss Matte and Gloss Varnish. Echoing what SYLV9ST9R said earlier, the Gloss-M adds a glossy sheen to the otherwise flat (matte) UV print. The Gloss-V takes it up a notch by adding some thickness to the gloss. You can see it and feel it -- think applying vinyl sticker. The Gloss...

    Son of Ben with Hammond 1590BS

    Long over due... I'm in the camp that don't like wasted space, especially with the 125-B. So I built this Son of Ben into a 1590BS enclosure. It provides the same depth that you'd get with the 125-B, thus being able to top mount the jacks and dc power while maintaining the smaller footprint of...

    Tayda UV Printing

    Just received these two UV prints from Tayda. First one is a flat black UV print over glossy white 1590b enclosure. My only complaint is that the top left and right printed further than I'd expected -- lesson learned for future designs. The second is a white UV print with Glossy Matte layer over...
