    Nice!! I have a Flange with no Name (xenotron) assembled, except I'm waiting on my next Mouser order for the LDR's. It's a fun one! Watch out for one of the transistors in the middle, it's the opposite polarity (BC549 vs 559)

    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    Doing two drum projects at once - This pile of stuff is the tension rods from my new to me Pacific CX maple kit, as well as all the hardware from an old Ludwig Accent kit in jazz sizes I picked up last year. They had a 24 hour bath in evaporust, after which I rinsed them in a colander and dried...

    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    I spent some time changing out the pickups in this guitar... again It now has a Gretsch HS Filtertron in the bridge and a Sunday humbucker sized Firebird pickup in the neck. I had an Epiphone Firebird for a bit, which was nice but not as nice as my SG, but I loved the neck pickup sound and...

    ^ If it comes to that I'll separate it into different lots and send them out to whoever wants what for the cost of shipping. My town dump has a disconcerting lack of white washers so I'm sure we could find a solution that appeals to everyone

    Why are people like this?

    I was graced with this a couple weeks ago: "Hello! Your page description mentioned you sometimes entertain petition projects. I've struck out in the past with this particular request so I thought I'd take it to the net! I am a big fan of the Nobels ODR-1 and love the huge crush of bass that...

    CONTEST It’s Time For Some Giveaways (Round 1 of 4)

    The trick with keeping your sanity while eating new york style pizza is you gotta fold it. That's why the slices are always cut super wide. We have a lot of that around here, but it's not my favorite because there isn't enough crust for it to have a nice texture. Another I like is buffalo...

    CONTEST It’s Time For Some Giveaways (Round 1 of 4)

    sock(et) it to me! 421 My favorite pizza topping is a good combination house pizza with pepperoni, sausage, peppers, and onions. If you've never done it.. try tipping a cheese or pepperoni pizza slice in A1 sauce

    Quality of Life improvements for bulk builds?

    With wires, you don't really need to measure - just clip off a length that is about what you need, but a bit longer, solder one end to your component, then lay the wire inside the enclosure and route it to its destination so you can get an idea of where to trim it, then hold that spot with your...

    Quality of Life improvements for bulk builds?

    If you're using a 125b then you can design your PCB so you can board mount pretty much everything except the footswitch, and then have that on a separate daughterboard that attaches to the main board with pin headers, making it easily removable. You could design the board with the footswitch...

    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    Idk! I'd categorize this project as "just try it and see what happens" so I didn't take pics as that would be a show of arrogance to the gods of idkwtf I'm doing but we'll see! Two of the frets were sticking up so I removed them with a small pair of bull nose pliers, bent them into a more...

    What's your current headache?

    Lately I spend all day at work wishing I was at home to work on one of my projects, but when I get home, I'm too tired and unmotivated to do any of them. I just want to sleep. I have an appt next week with the doc to discuss a sleep apnea study. I'm hoping this is the source of my lack of energy

    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    One of my friends wants to do an acoustic duo thing, and I don't have an acoustic, save for my girlfriend's mom old epiphone from the 90s that has been at string tension the entire time and is bellying up, making it unplayable due to the action height. Also it's right handed and I play left...
