    Aries Delta - Double Muffin Fuzz - Triangle and SUF 75.

    I used the Muffin Fuzz build doc, the components do match up, you just have to make sure to not mix up the A and B variants. The components you are most likely are not able to match are most likely R23 and R24. those most likely are part of the tone bypass on the Muffin Fuzz. All the rest should...

    Cepheid Chorus Troubleshooting

    Yeah that 3pdt switch wiring looks like it has seen better days. They can be sensitive to excess heat. Honestly the pcb components don't look too bad for just using an iron for a few days. I would definitely clean it up and honestly redo the offboard wiring to the switch. Do you have a...

    Looks like your links are not working, maybe trying uploading the images to the forum directly, or even a screenshot will sometimes work in a pinch.

    Where did I go wrong...

    No, the ICs, with numbering or lettering are specific for that circuit, the sockets are what you solder in first, that way you can remove the IC if needed and not have to desolder the legs. There are two main varieties. This one with the milled sockets. Or this one with the metal insertion...

    Where did I go wrong...

    Probably would work but the function would be backwards, terms of the sweep of the pot. Yep the black box with 8 legs is the IC. Also, if you are going to start building more pedals, I highly recommend getting some IC sockets. Especially some 8 pin sockets. That will cover a majority of your...

    Nova Vibe - Aion Straylight

    Tayda's enclosures are hit or miss, they use some sort of epoxy or harder paint that can melt and just cause a mess. If they only painted the inside of the back plate, that would be the best. I ordered a powder coat system from Eastwood, if all of it ever comes in, I can't wait to try some of...

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    I would first double check that the LED polarity is correct, and that the LED itself is actually good. If the LED is oriented correctly, try reflowing the pins from the tube board to the main board and confirm continuity between the boards. If you're seeing voltage on the LED positive leg but...

    Tayda UV Print Tool Final Update Gloss Testing

    Yeah that’s the same analyzer I was talking about. It’s actually really helpful for catching issues before sending the file to Tayda. Also just to mention for anyone following along — you don’t need Illustrator or vector artwork to use the tool. You can literally make your design in paint.net...

    Nein Fuzz 3rd Attempt/Failure

    If your multimeter has a continuity checker, I would check and make sure these connections are good. Is there is an issue there it will save you some time.

    Tayda UV Print Tool Final Update Gloss Testing

    Thanks so much for the kind words! I’m glad the tool helped make the process easier. One small note if you run the generated file through Tayda’s new PDF Artwork Analyzer. Depending on how the gloss layer is toggled in the preview, the artwork may appear hidden behind the gloss highlight...

    Tayda UV Print Tool Final Update Gloss Testing

    Trust me, you are definitely not alone in the vector-challenged group. 1. UV printing will work on bare aluminum, but many choose to use powder coated enclosures because it gives a more professional result. Bare aluminum should still work fine, but the final look can depend on the design and...

    Minnow - S/H Issue

    Here is the one I just built, I used some T0-92 package J201s. But you need to make sure your J201pcb boards are oriented correctly as well. Match a TO-92 pinout with the labels on your smd pcbs.
