Do you still do those Rocktave Dividers? I have an idea for one with some mods based on what I like & dislike about my BYOC Octave Divider.

Only have time to build for myself these days because the new job is kicking my ass. What mods were you thinking of for the Roctave? You know they are different circuits right?

I liked my rocktave as the tracking was great but I think I prefer my pearl octaver better. The pearl doesn't track as well but sounds so good with fuzz. There's a new and improved pearl pcb from Madbean pedals that is coming out this year and I am definitely going to build that one again....

Posting here just because I keep seeing circuits that make me think "Man, I should save up and try to get LaoWiz to build that..."

And then I remember about work and real life and stuff, and I get a sad.

You all are such sweethearts!

I have managed to build a whooping 2 pedals this year! A bit of good news, I just moved into a new house with my lady and no longer will spend various nights away from home and her place and away from the shop. Work has been absolutely brutal as I am working for a commercial production company with a really good job that I am totally unqualified for so I am constantly learning the hard & long way spending lots of weekends behind my computer trying to endlessly get up to speed. But it's good, no more freelancing and a nice steady secure income.

That said, we have just moved into the new place and I am setting up shop our huge detached garage. Along with my desk that I built for pedal work there is also a built in work bench and my working space will now be about 5 times bigger. Still, time will be limited and I'm going to catch up on some personal builds first but I think I will be able manage some builds in the future. But I'll probably fuck around with some circuit ideas for the most part instead of building complex multi pedals or stuff I've made in the past. Would be fun to make small batches of things but we will have to see......

I totally underestimated your build output this year by 1 pedal. :lol:

But not really, because 1 doesn't work correctly!

Fukkin' A yeah!

Congrats on the new place, man. And a steady job is huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge. Hopefully it's getting easier as you go (and not just cuz I want more of yr builds). Don't worry about your audience here - as long as you check in from time to time, we'll be around...

Thanks everyone! It sickens me a bit to have to work a real job but it's good, its a day job with a bad commute but its so nice to have steady money. Probably the first time in my life to have steady and somewhat secure income. I've been paranoid about getting fired but seems I'm doing ok.

I started setting up the new shop and it's going to be so incredibly dope that I will have to use it. Just a shitload of space. I have so many enclosures that I have purchased over the last year that need to be etched. I shall post a pic of the shop when it's all set up and then hopefully get inspired to make some fuzzies...
