Title: 2-in-1: Big Muffaletta Machine
Post by: mcasemo on January 29, 2015, 02:30:17 AM
Here is my next 2-in-1 completed octagon, trying not to waste all the space.  A zvex machine feeding into a Big Muff Pi V3/V6 (trying to get a J. Mascis version after reading the kitrae interview).  Zvex is supposed to pair with fuzz, will cut through it.  Its pretty gnarly sounding by itself.  Muffaletta is a New Orleans Italian sandwich, so i have a machine grinding one up.  The teeth of the grinders are little pi symbols.  So much fun to put stupid things on pedals.

One day I'll get obsessive about clean wiring, not there yet obviously.

Thanks!.  They are Hammond enclosures, you can get them from mouser bare or painted.  Search for 1590STPC, be careful the pictures don't always match the color.

Brilliant graphic. The Pi symbols must have taken some patience, but well worth it for the result.

Looks great!  In the northeast, Italian sandwiches are called grinders.  Fits the theme...
