Thanks. Is R17 the right one?

I have tried this method of toner transfer and had less than stellar results. I tried it on copper clad board as well. Yours turned out much better than mine did. Maybe I'll try again some time. What paper did you use, I tried many different ones out of different magazines as well as different strength acetone.
I used regular laser printer paper. I used this tutorial. For some reason my wife feels straight up acetone to remove her nail polish.

Lower the value.

Total recall because it gives you options.  I like the chorus option myself. Plus if you built an aqua boy, you'd have one left over.

This was a board jubal81 did, and it does sound really good. Interestingly, it can do fantastic overdrive and distortion sounds in addition to the fuzz.
I agree.

Looking grungy good! Any particular reason for placing the board upside down? Maybe because everything is a bit upside down at present...?
Yeah, I was in the zone and this was the second enclosure I was drilling at that happened.

I have have this board forever. I don't know who made it or where it came from. It's a pretty versatile style fuzz, sounds good with a Les Paul. I tried something new, an acetone transfer. It would work better with the enclosure sanded smooth. Not terrible for a first try.

I normally have very little against Mr Trump
But honestly, he needs to listen to the people around him. On this subject, he is a complete life noob and is gonna get a lot of people dead.
I saw a legitimate quote where he was questionning the need for 30k ventilators, stating that large hospitals only have about 2....
Most small vet surgeries have a couple for christ sake.

I am on day 15 of lockdown, fortunately I can work from home. My wife who is 35 weeks pregnant is an anaesthetic specialist, and she started her maternity leave 3 weeks ago also and that is probably the biggest blessing. Selfishly her skills are locked away at home; she knows how serious this stuff is and she wants no part of it, especially with our unborn child to consider.

Our biggest concerns right now, other than basic supplies which seem to be improving after a rush bulk buy of idiots, is the fact that half the country (UK/England) doesnt seem to take this seriously enough, and whether I will even be allowed to accompany her in labour  :-\
Remember in January when he said this was another democrat hoax? Yeah....but that's enough of that, that LEGO bracket is just genius.

washer/dryer repair is suspiciously easy ... like I just haven't run across one of those "I need a repair man for this" sort of moments.



My now 30 year old Maytag washer needed the solenoid valve replaced a few years ago. The service man and counter man where i was buying the new part both were "don't ever get rid of that machine". Forty dollars for the part, and going by the stopwatch the machine was back together and ready to roll in under 7 minutes.

No kidding. I bought a set of 25 year old whirlpools last year because they are easy to work on. Got them from a man that refurbished them full time.

So this is the end of week two of wfh for me ... and the beginning of wfh for the rest of the office. boredom has definitely set in

I've noticed "senior hour" at Publix and WalMart is a joke. You're just giving those vultures an hour's head start on their hoarding. I watched more than one of them leave the store, cart full, load the car, then go in for round two ...
I watched a video, looks easy. My biggest concern is / was that they are in a laundry closet and I didn't want to drag them out. I'm a small guy with a bad back from 30+ years of schlepping gear. Turns out I can't take it apart where it is.

If you mean v2, it's down by the other discontinued VFE projects.
I must be going crazy, I could've sworn they weren't there earlier. That's been happening to me all day. I started to work on a build but then I stopped.
