Other kitty inspecting my new amp delivery yesterday. “That’s a lot of Tubes dad!”

Down to Earth Compressor (PPCB General Tso - ThorpyFX Fat General clone) Optical style Compressor I could not stand the Boss style compressor (VCA). Afterburn = Treble Pressure (0atm to 1atm) = Sustain (or compression) Throttle = pot controls Volume Re-Entry = pot controls Blend I used the...

I even used the little zipper part which fits perfectly in the 1mm slit and caused the right diffusion I was looking for! Unexpected result but love to see it! 😁

I have a Peterson Strobostomp mini which only has one out so unfortunately can’t do it that way. I tried connecting as depicted in the Fortin Zuul + manual which works but I get loud squealing from many of my gain pedals…

Gates of Hell (Fortin Zuul noise gate clone - PPCB Muzzle) Had to go with the line cut down the center to show the fire on the other side of the gate 😈 Utilized Tayda shape drill feature. Came out nicely at only 1mm wide, although ever so slightly off center but not terribly noticeable...

*Bookmarks thread for future* These look great, as everyone else said I love the aesthetic of your enclosures. All individual but with the same class. Will have to keep these in mind in the future once I finish current projects.

New Enclosure Day! -Gates of Hell - Fortin Zuul (Muzzle). Going to have red and orange LED illuminating the opening gate when engaged along with the standard multicolor LED -Down to Earth Compressor - Thorpy Fat General (General Tso). Space theme - Pressure (0atm to 1atm) is Sustain, Afterburn...

Alright good to know. I was surprised how fast they started mine, like 3 days after placing the order which is definitely abnormal… but was just weird 1 enclosure was completed and the other was so close and stalled out. Will wait the standard few weeks I guess lol

I have waited much longer but I’m saying they completed the first one rapidly, and even went through the first two steps of this one then it just stalled out… usually it takes a while for them to even start the drilling process but then each step happens rapidly.

No error or message there either :unsure:. I sent a message through the help desk to see if there’s something that they haven’t notified me about.

Anyone had an UV print job sit at “In Progress” for 5 days? I ordered 2 different enclosure jobs, they both got started faster than usual with the first one getting Drilled/Painted/Printed and the second getting Drilled/Painted but the Print status has been In Progress for the past 5 days after...

Have been working on a design to use these Toshiba 2SA478’s I found in Akhibara Tokyo. Have tested half the pack and only 1 so far tested bad. Think I finally have the basic circuit down, just need to work on the tone control and some voicing. I wanted a high gain fuzz using as much germanium...

FYI no more Masking service (at least for the time being) probably since they’re so overloaded recently.

Anyone have a quicker way to get ahold of Hugo/Tayda team. Their Masking service is “out of stock” which I’m sure just means the large number they added in stock to be able to order has now worked its way to 0. Trying to get my order in but want to include the masking service. Emailed...

Btw this is the pinout I’m using for the GT404. Center is Collector in this datasheet.

I just swapped out the transistors in my Sandspur for Soviet GT404B NPN germaniums. HFE 72 and 128. I had to switch out R3 from 1K to 33K to bias Q2 to 4.5V. Anything lower than that, the voltage was high. I saw on prior posts stating that increasing R4 would increase volume but I’ve already...

In Akhibara (“Electric Town”) there are a bunch of electronics stores for everything from appliance repair to LED shops to non-obsolete components (drawers of resistors, caps, ICs, sockets, pots, etc) to stores with display cabinets full of old goodies. Finding Ge transistors was relatively...

Thank you 🤗 Save for it and make it happen one day, no rush! Food and transportation is super cheap here so that is nice once you get here! Guitars - not so cheap lol I couldn’t find a good deal.

Also found this sick pedal store in Shinjuku. Right above Ishibashi Music Shinjuku (2nd floor) called Pedalholic.

Having a blast in Tokyo. On my brief search through Akhibara yesterday I found a 50 pack of sealed Toshiba 2SA478’s. Picture of the moment I spotted these Toshiba 2SA478 and Hitachi’s. I grabbed the Toshibas. Hopefully we have some good ones in here. Japan fuzz here we come!
