Collateral FX Continuum and first SMD adventure

[Guilherme Collateral]

The main reason I haven't been posting here frequently is that the number of orders for my pedals has increased significantly, and I haven't had much time. So, I decided to try adopting SMD work to facilitate inventory and speed up production. That was my first attempt at making a circuit using a stencil, solder paste, and a reworking station. It was a very satisfying experience, and I recommend it to everyone!

Very tasteful enclosure design! What were your up front costs for getting started with SMD excluding components?

Looks great! What circuits have you included in this build?

thanks a lot man! I got a cheap smd re-work station, I think it was a Yaxun, solder paste, solder flux and a fine tweezer, and I got some nice storage also. I think everything (tool wise) was under 150 USD

Thanks a lot man! Glad you liked it. Totally forgot to add that info, hahaha. It's a TS10 into a Klon!
