I'm a noob here, but love the forum. Lots of good info for DIYers, it's been quite handy already.

My first attempt at doing any graphics on a box, came out better than I expected. The polyurethane gave it a yellow tint that I didn't want and a weird grainy texture in places. Otherwise I'm pleased!

i like it! i want that LED to be a cherry tho...

I designed a 1v/oct VCO for my modular synth.

A couple of new things...

dude, great stuff and the guts are so flipping clean

also: Is that a cookbook or a menu?

Nice!!!

Thanks, man! It's a cookbook I got in Thailand when I was doing field research there some years ago. Some recipes have as many as 40 chili peppers! This is a spicy circuit (cheesy as that sounds), hence the inspiration. Okay, let me shut up now...

Orange one isn't technically finished yet

I have known you people for a while so I thought you might be interested to see what I'm up to lately.

This is really nice. Where'd you find the schematics?

But what are they?? Grey box looks mid-fi electronics-ish... Orange box just looks sexy

Good thing I didn't use my stamps to label it then
The grey I call the Willowisp. It's a lofi distortion I came up with last year. Fast forward to recently when I realized it's very similar in topology to the ROG Whisker Biscuit, which I had a pcb for. Thus it's the Willowisp, on a WB pcb. Due to similarities in circuit (not sound), I will likely not be producing them in the future.
The orange one is a Superfuzz with notch on a footswitch, and octave balance pot.

Willowisp guts. Not the prettiest, though still nice and neat.

Nice guts indeed! I take it that the thick black wire is shielded? How do you keep it from shorting on the foot switch lugs when it's cut so close?

It's actually not shielded. My spool ran out so I had to use what I had laying around (and is why there are like 4 different types/colors in there). Got a bunch of that thick stuff from a job I worked, but it's really too stiff/thick to be used much.

Brass Master clone, because squelchy un-gated fuzz is sex on a plate (but replacing the plate with more sex).

4MS Noise Swash. One of my all time favourite pedals, it's nice to finally have a version with useable foot switches (not something that seems to be on the list of priorities over at 4MS... )
