Title: Phaser phriday mxr phase 45
Post by: Thewintersoldier on March 26, 2021, 05:35:19 AM
Inspired by Dan's vfe Friday I decided to do phaser fridays. I have 5 phaser boards I've been meaning to do so it's the perfect time. So the next 5 weeks I will be giving Jimi something to drool over.
First up is a phase 45. Last year my cousin got my old phase 45 and phase 90. They were kit builds from when I first started building and he is like the world's biggest Van Halen fan so he got them when eddie died. So I ordered some new boards earlier this year. I don't like mini pedals (big feet, feels unstable) so I ordered the fuzzdog phase 45. They just call it a p45 and that's uninspired so I called it a smoothie like Brian's board. I had order a lot of 2n5952s from smallbear 2 years ago and when I went thru them I had 2 pairs and a quad so I lucked out. Sounds good, like a phase 45 should.
      For the enclosure I used silk for the artwork, cause silk is smooth lol. She's actually a pretty badass character and hope the show she's getting will be good. No film waterslide decal on tayda matte orange powder coat. Phase on!(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210326/ed2e2eb6885482eaba35bd64a8d5ca1d.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210326/ce66dfb74089720d99c4e933b105dbf7.jpg)

It may take a few hours to dig them all out. I'll see what I can do.

Phantastic Phaser Phriday should be a thing, I guess it is now. Nicely executed Smoothie there. Phase 45 is cool, I did a board recently for SMD JFETs. Was feeling impatient so just slapped on the first 2 MMBF5457s off a reel and hey presto - had phasing. Still need to box that one, was going to do an etched enclosure but it seems I need to practice my hot iron skills. Looking forward to the next installments, and to any and all phaser phamily photos.

Thanks, I have a mix a smaller circuits, medium sized circuits and week 5 is a big one. Might even do week six as an honorable mention cause I'm doing a reboxing of a prior one from last year. Not happy with how it turned out so I'm redoing it. Phaser phriday should definitely be a thing, your right!

Looks great! We need a Phaser Friday, I am sure I have one or two around here I could add.

That looks killer!  I love the matte orange, one of any fav Tayda boxes.
