Title: Is there still color in the world?
Post by: jjjimi84 on November 29, 2018, 02:29:46 AM
I started populating boards to see where i was at with parts and what I needed to order, three weeks later and I am almost done. Ten more stuffed just need to be soldered with five more to populate and solder. All enclosures are center punched but not drilled.

This year started with "oh I just want to buld a multiplex and a dirt baby, maybe a new fuzz".

It turned into something radically different.

Now to start sketching ideas for painting, the greatest problem i have ever had.

I have zero mojo atm.  This was a couple of weeks ago, it's much worse now.

I should post the spreadsheet i made to keep up with everything, but yes i got my multiplex and dirt baby. The dirtbaby hasn't left my recording board since its been built and now i have a total recall ready ro test and box. I wanna do a comparison demo when they are both done.

No reason for me to have it but I got it as a gift fifteen years ago when I bought my first les paul, that lp is gone and the mousepad stays.

I started doing the same thing the other day so I can figure out what parts to order. That's when I discovered I'm gonna have like 5 bluesbreakers when finish all of this.

Looks like you're keeping Bugg and Bean in business. ;)

I have so many boards it's ludicrous. I was thinking about PIFing some of them. I'm never going to build them all.

Those two get a lot of support from me, I like the layouts and boards the best. After a decade of building I kinda know what I like, that being said I have 1776, aion, lectricfx and vfe builds all in process.

When I read the start of this I thought, "Pppphhhtttt, you think you've got that many boards?"  Then I saw the picture and I immediately thought of this:
