Hi everyone!
Happy New years! I hope everyone has had their fun because now its time for a little competition!
Today I want to announce a limited parts contest that is being held by Chuck D. Bones and I!
The contest is about designing a circuit while being limited to a simple set number of rules. The contest is organized in such a way that it allows newcomers and experienced forum members to either get their footing in circuit design or to challenge themselves. We are hoping this brings in some friendly competition where you guys can show off your best designs! This is a contest after all and we are looking for your best!
Time:
The Contest will last for 6 weeks. The final entry must be entered by FEB 15th. After that date the contest will be closed and all entries will be judged.
The Rules:
1. No more than 30 parts (pots, switches & jacks not included)
2. No more than three knobs
3. No more than one trimpot
4. No more than one toggle switch
5. No more than one stomp switch
6. Parts have to be readily available from the usual sources, including eBay.
7. No high voltage. Anything above 40V is forbidden for safety reasons.
Entries will be judged by a secret panel based on tone, originality and cleverness.
*Judges Decisions are Final*
*Minimum entry is a working breadboard.*
*Stripboard will also be accepted*
*A photo of the finalized entry is mandatory.*
*Extra credit will be awarded to those who make a pcb but not for neatness. The reason behind this is some forum members have experience making boards and i believe an unfair advantage will be at play here.*
*Extra credit for a sound clip will be awarded as well.*
Prize:
Way Huge Fat Sandwich that was traced by our forum Circuit Wizard @Chuck D. Bones
Wish you all the best and have fun making some cool circuits! If you have any questions about the contest please feel free to message me! Just dont expect any help
