Hi all, I'm building a Tactical Fuzz (Thorpy Tacit Blue), which is basically an NPN Ge Fuzz Face with a 42TL019 transformer. I also have a C-Buffer board that I never got around to installing in anything. Would it be unwise to build the C-Buffer into the fuzz? I like the idea of having it at...

Hello! Just finished a Curds and Whey today that sounds awesome... but only outside of the enclosure. Once it's boxed up, it starts behaving erratically. Any or all of the following symptoms have occurred: - Sometimes the Blend pot only has full volume at the extremes and is very quiet for...

Hi! I have an X-Tronic 3000 Series soldering station: https://www.amazon.com/X-Tronic-3020-XTS-Digital-Display-Soldering/dp/B01DGZFSNE/ I'd like to get a variety of tips for it, but I'm not sure what specs to look for. Anyone have recommendations or guidance to set me on the right path? I'm...
