Hiya,
This looks like a pretty good forum, so I thought I'd sign up.
Allow me to introduce myself. I'm a long time bass hack, and somewhat chronologically starting in the mid '70s, a former speaker reconer, former electronics repair tech, former electronics prototyping tech, former network janitor (IT Manager) now retired, and currently an electronics tinkerer, hobby machinist, mountain biker and (somewhat) competitive target shooter and reloader, and most recently a new grandfather.
Currently building an Afterlife compressor and planning to try some of the mods suggested for bass. Also building a Flabulanche because I didn't want to order just one board and I'm always trying different overdrive pedals to see which I like for bass. The description and design info was intriguing so I thought I'd give it a shot. I'll let you know how it goes.
Later,
Ric
Hey Ric, welcome to the forum! Congrats on being a new Grandfather! ;D
ee-yup, congrats on the newborn :)
Be warned, this is an addictive hobby. I'm not sure if it's the constructive part.
Welcome!
Welcome to the forum! Good to have another Michigander around :)
Welcome Ric, congrats on the newly minted grandparent status. Always good to have another bass player around. Can't wait to see how the afterlife turns out, I've heard it's a good comp for bass but haven't looked into it much yet.
Also, this popped up in the last few days. Looks pretty promising.

Welcome! Sounds like you have a ton of skills that are well suited to many DIY music gear projects.

Machinist, you say? This is something I've always wanted to get into.
YAY MICHIGAN!
Welcome, this place is indeed a very good source for all things related to DIY pedal building.
What part of Michigan? I'm in West Branch (a bit southeast of Houghton Lake) just moved here a couple of years ago from Jackson.
I'd love to work on some sort of collaborative projects/efforts with some other local builders.
Welcome to the board!

I was thinking the same thing. Also, there are some boards for a couple of Ampeg ports (svt and b-15n) on thcustoms and grind customs webstores that could be good for you.
