Problem is, this is mostly true.

Just thinking in a practical sense: With the source voltage at 8.5vDC, what were the collector voltages on the transistors? The easier way would be to just use a voltage box like this but it means an extra piece of gear. You could simply tweak the collector voltages to the values you get...

The first question would be: Why?

My largest batch so far was 30 of my newest version of the Pompeii simultaneously. I do it in chunks, i.e. Power supply components for all boards, then input buffer for all boards, first and second stages, then I/O boards with diodes and jacks, switch boards and stomps, then pots for all...

I started with the Rullywow library and over time have pretty much made my own from scratch based on experience making boards and schematics. I think the biggest things to do is to decide how you want to categorize your parts and to work one component at a time. For instance, if I were...

1kC is what you want for a Fuzz Face.

New Big Monk Pi boards: Starting to redesign around 1/8W resistors and MLCC wherever I can. This helps to keep the same drill plan and PCB footprint for all my builds.

I used to spray loose fill insulation and there were many work stoppages in the city of Poughkeepsie, NY when pre install inspections found knob and tube.

Very true and honestly, were it not for how seamless and easy the Cliff washer is, I would not bother. When "best practice" is this easy, you do it because, "Why not?"

I'll say that what @KR Sound describes is a good method as opposed to ground springs. I used ground springs for early revisions of the Pompeii and what I did not like was how much pressure was put on the solder joints. My Mooer E-Lady had a PCB mount tab that connected at the screw for the...

We are getting into the weeds here and I'll not presume to be an expert on grounding, as even as an EE, grounding is black magic, but technically the enclosure is supposed to be grounded only at a single point. It mostly does not matter, and as you pointed out, many projects essentially ground...

The Cliff washer is the absolute cleanest way I have ever been able to do it and since I have an I/O PCB, it's seamless.

The only issue I see with that is technically you don't want to make enclosure ground at more than one location.

Don’t try to outwit me with your literalism.

That’s not a Big Muff.

Nope. But I’ll work it in somewhere.

For time being, probably not. I’m planning on releasing it commercial at the start of this fiscal year. I’m going to prepare a modification document for both the EV and EVM outlining what I think are the most impactful mods.

I use them with the Tayda Mono PCB jacks as well with just a little strategic bending.

Yes. I found black rockers on Mouser but only On-Off-On because I think I selected PCB pins. I’ll refine my search later for solder tab switches.

Any one have a link to the Red/White OG looking switch for the Electrovibe? I promised I searched, but gave up on Page 5.
