My latest one. And maybe my simplest so far, yet one of the best sounding things i built. It is the Red Llama. And it felt good to "just put together" (well not really "just") a fairly easy thing after the almost over-ambitious SubCommander:)
For me, the challenge this time was to do the design all the way. From Eagle design to etching etc. It is the second board i successfully etch and drill myself. Very satisfying:)
The enclosure is another story. I first designed it as an etch mask, but after failing big time twice(!), i sanded it down and put it on as a decal. Yes, "Röd" = "Red" in swedish.
... I really cant thank this forum enough, even though i read more than type; so much help and talented ppl in one place!
Cheers!

Really nice, must be really relaxing compared to the subcommander...hehe :)
Would it be possible to know where you buy those 1/4 jacks?
Rej
Thanx guys:)
Relaxing is the word ;D ...
Rej: I just found those jacks and i like them. Small and gives a feeling of "full and high quality", available as mono or stereo. Bought from http://moodysounds.com/ (link to the jacks: http://moodysounds.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=7_18_20&products_id=21 ), one of very few swedish shops selling "our" stuff. He is not really cheap when it comes to parts, but gives excellent service. And i gladly support the local shop now and then. He also sells box kits and pcb-s with some fun designs.
Cheers
nice finish... great job
Lovely stuff dude.
The PCB layout looks nice and neat as well.
Can't beat a bit of Red Llama!
That's one hell of a llama. :D
Nice and clean!
sweet build, man. congrats on doing everything yourself.
I agree about the llama. so few parts, such an easy build, such a great sound.

I've had a populated board done for 4-5 months and haven't even thrown it on the test rig, but I am not sure why. You guys are inspiring me to actually do something with it.
