More fast and bulbous capacitors. Tantalums I assume.

Good News Everyone!

The 100-5457 SMDs have arrived!

The bad news? They need to be measured sorted and matched

The good news? I have one of these kajiggers on the way!

What is that?

Missed a couple spots on that breakout board?

It does look that way, but it has never given me any issues.

What is that?

That's a test adapter for SOT-23. You put the transistor in, close the lid, and connect to the pins on the pcb...It makes matching much easier.

Here's my Terrarium build. It's my first Tayda pre-drilled.

Damn you Fig now I have to build one! You guys are all enablers!

Those red pot covers have a vaguely mammalian quality to them, Dr. Rorshach.

The knob on the lower left looks out of line… never mind, that was just me in the hall mirror.

Pro Tip: Don’t surf the forum on your phone while walking around…



As for the Terrarrariumdeeayy, it looks toight loik a toitle. Think I’ll go with a 1590B3 or even 1590BB2 for some footswitch separation.

Excellent work Fig. Now I feel inspired, nay compelled… to go trouble shoot my present breadboard-build.

It certainly looks that way...

Mining for peanuts

Was that the sequel to Waiting for Godot?…

What a day for a daydream...

Did the joint come pre-rolled with the kit or did you have to roll it? I don’t have fingers that’s why I’m asking.

@fig the finish on that is gorgeous! Is that an old Bugg pedal or did you make that?

It IS gorgeous! A friend of mine gave me that enclosure

No...you inspired me! One Terrarium...

Edit: Minus the switches..oops...I simulated the footswitches with tactiles.
Edit2: Oh, and I run it from my PSU so I left out the L78L05 and bits.

This is a fantastic instrument!

So what is it? Custom shop? What are the specs? Do tell!
