Maybe I'll crack out Eagle again and see if I can lay it out. Been a few years though. Si Edited October 7, 2022 by Sibob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeFRC Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 So I forgot how much pedal building added up if you forget a thing... After the of course I go to start of the valve preamp build and start with the diodes ... except I have one less diode than I need. Somehow the order for one diode and one other IC for something else ended up on me spending £30 on other stuff... in anticipation for the next couple of builds... I was about to order some PCBs and stopped myself, just done the sums on how much everything will cost and we are over £100 for two pedals. One of them is quite complex and bucket brigade chips cost a fair bit but still pause for now. Also any negative experiences of ordering from Tayda?

I’ve obviously cooked something or made some other error but I am going to take another look tonight to see if I can spot anything obviously wrong. A little update. I contacted Julian at Schalltechnik_04 who very helpfully marked up some photographs of my PCB with joints he wanted me to resolder. Kit No2 came without the push button switch so I had incorrectly wired in a DPDT on/on in its place and Julian also helped me with the correct wiring. Unfortunately, during the desoldering of the switch I managed to cook the board (I know) so kit no2 is now in the bin and this spells the end of my DIY effect building career. It’s been fun and a huge learning curve but I will step out now and let those of you who clearly know what you are doing carry on with the electrickity 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PunkPonyPrincess Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 All a WIP and a sideline for when I have a few hours to myself…. I like making effects from Kits — Fuzzdog, Pedalparts and JedsPeds and so on… …but the very best bit is… making my own woodwork for the boxes. Here we have Spalted holly and Walnut/Iroko offcuts/reclaims. I made my own pedalboard for them to sit on too. Iroko salvage and Maple PAR planks. People say “thats not very punk” but I cant think of anything more punk than making your own DIY stuff. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
