Open Discussion / Re: Anyone else get the Covid Vaccine?

« on: February 13, 2021, 10:21:31 PM »

I got my second dose last week.  No chills or fever.  Just a sore arm and a headache the day after.  The worst of it came the evening after, I was sluggish and a bit more wore out than usual. By the next morning I was fine.

I got the first round of Moderna by chance.

There were 16 people in my organization that are deemed mission critical.  But 6 of them refused the shot for whatever perosnnal reason.

The Director walked around the building and asked the first six people she saw "Do you want the vaccine?"
>>Yes.  Yes I do.


Nanobots and all, pump me full of lead.
It's not like the Army hasn't tested half a dozen things on me already anyway.

The day after my arm felt like somebody hit it with a hammer.  But that was all the side effect I felt.

How Do I? Beginner's Paradise. / Re: How do I run two phasers parallel in one pedal

About halfway down in this thread, DutchMF posted a switch diagram pdf.


It worked for me.
It switches the two circuits between series and parallel.

Also, we haven't had a day of work less than 11 hours so far. Tomorrow is the last day.

My guitar has already taken the blood of three men.

Multnomah Falls and the book store both sound interesting. 

I'm taking the workshop offered by MIchael Fox.

I'm in the Electric Guitar and Bass class.

From less than scratch is essentially from before the design.  We start with a blank piece of paper.  Design our guitar, then start making it from piles of raw material and a bag of shit from All Parts.

I'm in Portland this week learning how to build solid body guitars from less than scratch.

I'll have next Sunday and Monday to do stuff in the area.

Any recommendations?

Open Discussion / Jewelry things

« on: January 07, 2018, 01:38:35 PM »

I have a friend living with me for a while and she makes jewelry like we make pedals.  She asked if she could have some stuff from my stash. 

This is the first few things she came up with just messing around.

Calling all acquaintances, friends, friends of friend, nice people who are out there.

There is a high probability that I will be moving to the Baltimore-DC area in the next couple months. 
I've never lived in this area before and I'm not sure what I'm getting into.

Is there anybody out there that can help me with this transition?

I suppose mod this will be to convert the JB-2 to sound like an original Blues Driver by eliminating the Angry Charlie circuit...

So an extra hundred bucks to mod the pedal... by turning the right side knob to "Boss" and cutting the shaft off.

Oooohhhhhhh daaaaaaaaammmmmmmnn.
