What a freakin way to start an album! The breakdown in that first song is nuts!

I have no idea what he said but im sure his enemies, and demons were slain.

The 2nd song is even better in my opinion.....going to let this ride....

Holy shit. What didn’t I buy this sooner? I set the board in a small amount for about 30 seconds and wiped it down with a small brush.

Yeah why didn't you

Because I’m a glutton for punishment and like to do things the hard way evidently.

Dude this rules.

 

[steviejr92]

Dude this rules.

I listened to the album the whole way through. Its worth the listen, its a very very good album the riffs are insane!

Got a dose of Sheepylove today straight from @szukalski, plus a couple of storage boxes, I'm planning to put transistors, IC's and diodes in those. I've got the resistors and capacitors decently figured out, but with all those parts in their own Tayda baggies in one big bag means it's annoying to fish for the correct ones.

Baseball card holders.

Mellow Yellow (medium yellow with yellow flake)

Quite rightly!

 

[steviejr92]

Quite rightly!

Im thinking black print on yellow will look good!

Last of my PCB's on the way got here! General Tso, Fuschia Fuzz, Germanium II Distortion and the Magnetron Delay. I think I'll have General Tso "jump the queue" since I've heard so much praise for it, even though I (like a lot of other people, it seems like) don't really like compressors with guitar tones.

After a month of waiting the Pu55y Melter has arrived!! Now just have to wait for the rest of the components to arrive!!

 

[UtilityBeltFX]

I've mostly left my boards fluxy, but I'd like to clean up my act. I bought a bottle of that stuff a while ago, but honestly haven't used it that much... I haven't tried dunking a board - I was trying to squirt some on the board then toothbrush it and it was kind of a mess. Are pedal components generally happy with getting submerged? Doing that before the pots are mounted I'm guessing?

I filled a 1590BB enclosure with about 1/8” of the fluid and laid the boards down in it for about 30 seconds. Most of it came off in the solution, then I took a toothbrush and cleaned the rest, dragging it down into a paper towel.

That's why I use a spray bottle and a toothbrush. It uses the least amount of solution and a bottle can last a good long while.
@Erik S I also "rinse" the flux remover (with the mess) off with 99% IPA. (It actually doesn't really matter what concentration IPA you use. Once you open it, it's no longer 99% because the alcohol absorbs moisture)

Will be attempting to screen print the boxes for a unique packaging experience.
