Something like this?

I tape the wire to the underside of the enclosure to improve the contact between the alligator clip and the box. Without it I think the options are to clip it next to box on the rack or on the box and have a flaw in your paint. The only reason I mention it is because I started with the air compressor/eastwood gun (that it came with) and moved to the craftsman (which it didnt) and its been a big help. That and heating the box, cant say enough about a little preheat on the box.

I'm not going to take your insolence sitting down!

After my compressor broke I picked up that Craftsman gun. It works just as explained, and I also let the object get a little hot before. There isnt much to the gun and my cuplock broke off but I find that its easier without the darn thing!

One thing I do have from the previous setup is some good stainless steel wire and heat resistant tape. Really helps! Should be able to get em from Eastwood.

One last thing...

You fight like a dairy farmer!

I love seeing other guys NADs!

I was on the fence between this one and the Egnator Tweaker but I went the Tweaker route. I found out a guy I know has one of these and I got to play it some. Kinda looking forward to Marshall's 1 watt series this year...maybe I can finally snag a jcm 800

Congrats on your new amp!

+1 to this!

Lol, absolutely! I'm gonna play with my weener all the time!!

Any idea when he doc will be available?

Another two votes for pig butt and rump roast! Side note - I'm very excited weener in!! In a few weeks I'll have something to fill up my cry baby! Woohoo!

If you guys are looking to unload hit me up! I love the build, but what I REALLY love is playing with them. :-)

My first project was the EasyDrive from Joe Davisson! One knob, transistor overdrive with a clipping section to experiment with. Low parts count and sounds pretty good.

The electra distortion was another good simple overdrive with lots of learning opportunities and simple mods available for switches and stuff.

BazzFuss is another good beginner. Homewrecker has lots of good mods and info about this circuit, including a deluxe version.

I think if you aim to have the project completed in about an hour...you might be able to finish it in a day with the kiddos

DOH! One just left my house!! Wish I checked this more often. 

I would have thought grounding too, but after two aristocrats and 6 king of klones, one KoK works ok. I don't freaking understand what I'm doin. Glad yours kicks ass

I had the same problem. Never fixed it but I think I had a bad tone cap, I gave up and made two king of kone boards. Those have their own problems. Pop like the devil. Used madbeans bypass wiring and put in amz led pop protection, driving me nuts. Made two more boards and same problem. I give up. For your thing I connected ic pin 1 and 2, working but I know it was wrong.

Makes me think of Arthas... *nerds out for a second*
