What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

[KR Sound]

Good Morning, Morning Glory… er, Hole.

Used some crappy paint, but a cool honey color. Took about 5 coats just to get decent coverage. Going for the 70s flower design on our old table ware. Some of you guys remember. Will clear coat it tonight and get it boxed up tomorrow.

I like kits from time to time when parts are a little more difficult to source.

Sourcing parts is part of the fun But I did not test the tesla transistors I put in this, hope they will perform well... and I think I put the clipping diodes the wrong way

Youch!
What happened to your 6th saddle there?

lol... I'm still putting it all together and was taking a break... a day ago this strat was brand spanking new and shiny.... I went after it pretty good and rusted up all the parts...

This is a compact synth that I plan to use for CV sequenced basslines.
Doing these "kit" builds with all the components pre-picked makes me feel like a king- a spoiled damn king!

I is SO JELLY-YES, yes I is.

Bin Wantin' the DESKtrope HyDroNium for very long long times.

Gawt TUnE iN ToKYo this past fall after menne menne yearages, 'tis what taught me to thought of HyDroNium DESKtrope.


Yessages, MOST GASaciously-inducing yourorack is. Must build DESKtrope in buyger bawx, rrrrooomm to MAUDE!

Putting together my Glory Hole, does this 47k resistor make my B50k into a legit B25k pot?

No. You will alter the taper from linear and, depending on how you’re using the pot (i.e., voltage divider or variable resistor), may have some unexpected behavior.

Thanks. It’s for the tone control, and it seems to do the job. I ended up finding a B25 not to long after I soldered it in so I’ll swap it and see what diff it makes.

Appreciate the links!

Edit: looks like I need 2 ~25ks between each leg

What’s the Story, Morning Glory Hole?

 

[Harry Klippton]

The whole time I was working on this, I was cursing it being in a 1590a. Well, I misdrilled it, and decided I'm gonna put it in a 125b after all as soon as I make a new round of decals

 

[DGWVI]

Uhhh, two by two with caps of blue?
Populating the boards for two Biggus Synthus' tonight. Still have the Dark Rifts, HAARPS, and PLLs to go. Tomorrow will be drilling and wiring

not one but two Robotos

Yep, someone ordered two of these - Biggus Synthus

EDIT - Still have the PLLs to go

 

[Passinwind]

New layout for open source variable high pass filter:

 

[KR Sound]

New wiring and pickups and picguard in the CV JM. Chicken head knobs? Maybe?

Next is fretwork, shim the neck and get it all set up.

The kerning in your logo is making my former graphic designer self turn in his grave

Sorry

I do like the graphics

Hey @andare is this better?
