Got me a dense parcel from @jwin615 - part purchase, part informal back-n-forth PiF where I somehow get the lion's share of stuff ('specially this time 'round...)


The manila envelope enveloped by pink tayda packing poppers is the purchase. Got me some of that silver mica stash he's got for sale over yonder.

And here they are:


And here's the goods from this parcel trade round:


The adventure begins


Some vintage gold in vintage gold packaging


The pink bags are my sorting of the adventure. Not yet chosen, just ...categorized The bag with the yellow info printing has some of that hoard of relays

Not pictured (because I already put them in their proper pouches into pages into folders) are several prime ribeye bits of silicon.

Took delivery on my repress of Ruby Vroom yesterday and 20 minutes later my brother sends me a picture of his. I have an original copy but it has a terrible repeating skip in the first minute. I can finally enjoy Is Chicago, Is Not Chicago on my set up.

DOH!

 

[Fama]

DOH!

Oof that's unfortunate.

...I also really need to dig out my Figbuster again, it's a lot of fun.

Ya haha. I'm still gonna use them. Maybe on a tayda metallic candy purple enclosure. Love the Figbuster

Custom power transformer for an incoming amplifier build. I just want something with KT88 again… might document it in the build section.

Quite a few WIMA film caps for said amp build. Mix of PP and PET. Less than half of what it costs from Mouser since I am in Germany buying from a German distributor, so not bad at all.

This takes me back! Saw them at the Metro in Chicago, probably 1995. Low was the opener (!). Excellent, excellent show. My buddy disappeared and then reappeared about an hour after the show had ended. I was in front of the Metro freaking out (thinking he had been kidnapped or something) and he suddenly pulled up.. "sorry, they took me to the ER! Passed Out - Dehydration!"

I bet that was amazing. I never got to see them before they split. My brother has been bitter for 20 years because he had tickets (also in Chicago) to see them with Morphine but it was canceled when Mark Sandman suddenly passed away.

You had me at KT88 — Please document in the build section!

I will then! Should be a slightly tuned up Deliverance.

And apart from that, I got some fader caps to adorn my barren sliders. I also ordered the white inset slider pots, so I'll compare and contrast when they get here.


No, they're not soldered

First half of the massive order to complete my Lastgasp collection. This is a custom order with the OG knobs and footswitches. The final seven pedals + shirt will arrive in two months, because I have been bleeding money lately. :')

Which one is your favorite so far?

Some of those elusive C25K pots with PCB pins and solder lugs, Alpha brand. Also 6 mm to 6.35 mm shaft adapters and toothed pot washers. Found these at uk-electronic.de for an okay-ish price. Shipping isn't too high either if you're in Germany.
