Hey LS, is the filter pot B1k like the build doc or B100k as on the silkscreen?

printable drill template for those who may need. LED is 3mm. I'm stuffing this tonight and already drilled but this isn't 100% verified, yet

Hey LaceSensor, is SW2 on/on type 2?

Built but need to drill a box still.

Grab a 100-130 value kit and one of the smaller 50 value kits(these are more common values). You'll have resistors covered for years including odd ball values.
Sit the 50 value kit to the side, then pull what you need as needed once the ones from the larger kit are depleted.

I store my resistors in a couple of cheap recipe card boxes, dividing with the insert cards inserted every half decade or so. Keeps in compact, quick and cheap.
As far as caps go, head to tayda and get 10x of everything that's a decade of 10, 15, 22, 33, 47, 56, 68, 82.
Order extra 1, 4.7, 10, 220, 470nf.
Add decades of 12, 27 and 39 if you want completness.
Putt the bags in baseball card holder in a large 3 ring binder.
There. A kit.
And don't buy cheap eBay/Amazon/Ali Electros. Get the middle of the road ones from tayda at minimum. Try for 25v rated for larger values, but you may want a few 16v rated for tight builds. For 100u and down, up to 50v should be fine.

I just need pots and wiring on my build. Caught Covid again a week ago and been tied up with home renos.
Looking forward to wrapping it up soon though.
Thanks again for putting this out there in the wild. I'll report in once done!

3904s have a higer Vbesat and lower Vbeo. Maybe the small difference in B and E in Q1 and Q2 were not allowing the 5088s to conduct?

Fine for non-vintage fuzz circuits that you would want first in chain.
Though, you're going to have a lot of wasted space in that deep enclosure.
Something like a shallow 3RU box would be better. Mount the PCBs vertically on the front panel. Could get close to a dozen circuits in there I bet. Maybe more.

Awesome. Thank you!

This one?

@LaceSensor, missing the value for R7 in the BOM and it's in the shadow of a cap in your gut shot so I can't reliability band count. Think there's orange brown and black there but not sure...
And man, you pulled out all the odd all resistor values. I think I used 4-5 values for the first time. 😂
There may be a few caps in the BOM that are non-existent. Had to use my fingers and toes to count them so I may be wrong. I'm about 5 caps and R7 away from being done.
Thanks again for sharing this!

Is Iceland so bored they've resorted to a scam economy?    Grow your bananas, you geothermic hooligans

Apparently that site is a "buy your doing business as address here" kind of thing. Probably for tax evasion and also secrecy.
P.O. box for shell companies.

The whois mailing address is Kalkofnsvegur 2, Reykjavik, Capital Region, 101
If you Google this address, there are a ton of scams associated with it.

I'd be down for a board!
