Started this build last year (!) and finally got around to finishing it. I had the circuit board all populated
with a MN3007 that I bought off ebay and it wasn't working. So I finally got around to getting a good chip
from smallbear and the circuit fired right up. Lots of flanger goodness! Many years ago, I had an original
MXR 117. One of my faves that I've missed ever since.
Ran into a bit of a prob with the output jack. When a plug was inserted, it was hitting the feedback trimmer.
Drilled out the hole to a larger diameter and moved the jack far enough to not cause the problem.
Apologies for the blurry pics ... need to pick up a cheap tripod for my extremely cheap camera.

Nice work! I always seem to mess up top mounted jacks. Is that gold spray paint with a waterslide?
The collosalus is a mighty flanger in it's own right but...... I have yet to find a flanger that beats the 'ole SAD1024. Its sad (no pun intended) that no one has re-made that magic chip!
Agreed. I wonder Reticon has the design all tied up.

Thanks! It is indeed spray-paint: Rustoleum Metallic Gold. And a clear waterslide decal.
And for finish, Rustoleum clear-coat. cheap and cheerful! :)
Nice in and out. Great job.
Beautiful build. I need to build a flanger.
That Rustoleum looks really good! Nice work. I need to do a flanger too at some point.
Nicely built!
