Title: My 2nd build!
Post by: raven174us on March 16, 2014, 06:33:15 PM
I finally finished my 2nd build. It is Chromesphere's Ember Drive. It has some flaws in the finish and the wiring is not as clean as I would like. I didn't have a battery snap either so I'll have to add that later. Overall I'm happy though. Now on to finish the Chunk Chunk......

This is your second build!? Nice dude! Clean, classic, simple graphics sometimes make the best. Neat wiring and good color too!

Thanks! I did a lot of reading and checking out builds on the forums before I started my first pedal. The first was a simple Bazz Fuss in a 1590a with no finish. lol I'm only hoping I can make them better from here. I still have a lot to learn though.

2nd build or 20th build, I'd be very happy with that!  Nice work.

Nice work Raven!  Seriously, if this is your 2nd, i cant wait to see your 20th.  Oh yeah, its gunna happen :D

Still waiting for those correct sized daughter boards to come in, hope the undersized boards weren't too much of a headache for you? (they look like the small ones?)

Thanks Paul! The undersized boards wasn't too bad. I do understand why you are making them bigger though.

I squeezed all of that into a 1590b! It was a huge headache. I don't know if I want to try it again. haha

Cool!  The new 3pdt boards (whenever the hell the finally show up) will have the wiring pads further out from the switch, so you don't have to be a microsurgeon to use them :D

Looking forward to seeing the chunk chunk!
