VFE pedal component group buy. Order form in post #1 (Dec 2)

somofabitch. I feel like a freshman late to the cool kids party. Any hope to get some Klein bottle and switching board scraps? Help with smd and fancy pots? If those spreadsheets are up to date, I'm down to wrangle the dark horses too.

Get healthy.
 
Got all the pots I need for my projects already received and packed away. I'm all in on the component group buy to keep making everything as easy as possible for everyone involved.

The spreadsheet is up to date. How many of each project do you want?

Man my timing is horrendous! Mixed up my email addresses and had given up.

I’ll take whatever is left that would make it easier to put a Klein bottle together from scratch, two if possible. Same for a dark horse, two also. Fingers crossed

Did this die? Or are we still waiting on boards/parts/etc.?

I have the boards and MCU. Trying to get the component request process organized so I could get a handle on it, has well, been a trial. I updated the component sheet in the Group Buy Google spreadsheet. The prices for each SMD component and the custom pots (for OCONUS people) are now there. I think I may need everyone to figure out what they want, very specifically, and let know the counts. This part has fried my brain.
 
Based on prices listed in the spreadsheet.

For each Klein Bottle

Chips = $30.45
Pots = $6.90

Both = $37.35

Did you get a chance to figure out cost for soldering the smd stuff yet?
 
Ok, this is how I figured my part. Let me know if it's OK or if I need to adjust. I wasn't sure if you were planning on soldering the smd for boards other than the KB.


--- PCB
3x SPS @ $2.00
2x KB @ $6.00
1x Alpha Dog @ $3.00
1x Ice Scream @ $3.00
1x Yodeler @ $3.50

Subtotal = $27.50

--- COMPONENTS
*** No pots
2x KB @ $30.45
2x KB SMD Soldering @ $2.00
1x Ice Sceam @ $4.80
1x Yodeler @ $3.00

Subtotal = $72.70

---
S&H (with Components) @ $10
Total = $110.20

I will solder SMD for other boards. I don't want anybody to feel like they shouldn't partake just because there is SMD involved with these.

That would potentially add $4 to your calculations, but otherwise, you are spot on. Now just to be clear, you could use a TL074 for the Ice Scream and a TL072 for the Yodeler, which are cheaper (aka less than $1 each).

Based on the $10 for shipping, are you outside the US?

Awesome. I'll add the $4 and let you do the others too. I'm good with the stock chips.

I'm in the US but I don't want you to take a hit on the shipping. Round up and call it a "Handling" fee.

Edit: Paid $114.20
