Hey folks,

Just want to start on a couple personal build projects, and my parts source was missing capacitors in 2 values:

- 0.15uF
- 0.18uF

I'd prefer mylar film but I'd go ceramic if need be. It's just not worth it for me to go to Mouser and pay their ungodly shipping for like 4 capacitors (was thinking 2 of each).

Let me know if you have these and can put them in an envelope and ship em my way for cheap. Can Paypal.

Also looking to get a 3k or 5k (log or linear) pot. I can get this...

I have a few Boss, Dod and Digitech PDS pedals in need of repair, all of which are missing their back panels. Is there anywhere I can buy cheap replacements? I was thinking I could either keep an eye out for cheap pedals to scavenge or try and fabricate panels with sheets of aluminium and a nibbler but buying the OEM parts would be even better. Thanks.

I'm getting really into the build your own pedal, but can't find any good location to buy casings from.
Just finished my first fuzz but it needs a house. Do you guys have any good addresses for buying casings?
Preferrebly in Europe or even better Holland.

Thx!!

hi, anyone intersested in buying a copy of a colorsound tonebender reissue. it's a good quality prototype spare from a commission build i did for someone.

it's just the loaded pcb, no pots though. it has been tested and works/sounds like it should.

any offers.

cheers.

Hello all,

Merry Xmas

Does anybody over this side of the pond know where a UK source of these chips can be found? One of the big suppliers (i forget which...) sells the SMD version, but alas i am not a robot and need something more manageable.

Thanks for all the help

Regards

Maybe this is old news. But mouser now has a bill of material import tool and the ability to share projects.

This is brilliant and something I have been waiting for.

Madbeans and tonepad could start providing links or CSVs with the parts needed for each project. Folks in the forums could easily link to the same or send the info in an email via the mouser site.
Call me lazy but it's a bitch sourcing the correct parts.

Wonderful, simply wonderful.

Hey, I'm compiling the parts I need to build the BJFE Honey Bee. Mouser does not seem carry the CA3130 IC. Is there another IC that would work? Any help?

Hello;

I'm starting this thread to share my opinion on the only Fab House I've worked with so far.

- Location: China

First I liked of this site, is that you can get a quote in real time, without having to write emails or anything.
You just need to sign up, and you are ready to check out how much your boards would cost, shipping, tooling, everything!
My boards are on the way, but a friend of mine back in Chile showed me some 4 Layers PCB he had done in PCB Cart. And the quality was absolutly...

Anyone know a direct replacement for the tiny 9mm pots with center detent?

I haven't opened up the unit yet so maybe the answer is inside but I thought I'd ask here before I take apart the box and start digging through the mouser catalog.

I've seen some posts about this in the past but I don't think I've seen a direct replacement.

Best, CB

I've got a quote for some MN3005s at $25 each but since there are SO many fakes out there, its tough to know whats the real deal and whats a fugazi.

REAL OR NOT?

Hi sexy humans :mrgreen:

Good buddy of mine start european version of his shop, he's ambitious bloke so I was thinking to help him out a little and put the link into FSB map

What we see here it's mostly amp parts, but like I've said, he have a solid plans, so you might be amaized soon. He's not to familiar with pedal making, but, well... he's got me, so I'll give a bit of helping hand if he ask me to.

BTW, he's a member here, so if you - central european sexy animals want to see...

Does anybody know what kind of alternative transistor I can use in place of an A92.
Looks like the A92 is a PNP in a TO-92 case.

Basically the knob is press-fit onto the shaft of a potentiometer which sits below the enclosure surface. My Taylor acoustic-electric has knobs like this, but I haven't been able to figure out where they might be sold to the general public.

The protruding profile is really shallow, about 5mm. I think knobs like this would work well on a small enclosure, because their overall height is lower than a depressed footswitch, so you could put them right next to the switch without fear of accidental...

Hey everyone,

So just splashed out on a couple of madbean aquaboy PCBs the last night! i had an mxr Carbon copy ages ago and had to sell it to get some money and have wanted another delay since! it was the only delay pedal i've ever owned and only had it a month!

quick question...how do each delay compare?? anyone used both? which was prefered?

But anyway to the main point....
MN3005s would be great...but i really dont want the hassle of tryin to get my hands on real ones! or have the time....

If you have one you are willing to part with, let me know how much.

No offense to Madbean, but I am not looking for an Aquaboy.

Thanks.

As title says, looking to buy a few of them (at least five). And please, save your you can get close enough with 0.047 uf and there's even 20% tolerance anyway And I mean it :horsey:

Ceramics preferred, but all others work as fine too.

Today in the mail I got my free samples from Horizons Imaging Systems Group:

Here is what they sent me:

ID-Mark unprocessed plates 5 x6 black .007 aluminum 4 sheets total

ID-Mark unprocessed plates 5 x6 red, black, blue plastic 2 sheets each color (I wasn't expecting this)

CD with Apple Quicktime video about how to make your own signs, labels, decals, plaques and awards, and panel fronts

I've used the aluminum plates before as the top of my pedal clone for graphics and labeling. ID-MARK -...

If anyone has loads of spare trannies, different diodes, op amps etc that they have spare I'd be interested in buying some - kind of like a grab bag of all the basic bench stock stuff that's used commonly in building - I have just bulk ordered resistors, capacitors etc but am looking to get some good deals on the rest.

Hi All,

Some of you will find this interesting. I think there could be some stompbox application of these strips too.

Happy Trails,

Greenmachine :popcorn:

I am looking for someone who can build me an Aquaboy with the double delay and modulation boards. I'm not skilled enough to attempt one of these yet, but I'm willing to pay someone who is to build one for me. If you are interested PM me with a quote.

Thanks, Dominic

As quickly as practical so europe only please

pins or lugs

Anyone got one?

Hi,

Anyone knows where i could find those nuke switches .... ?
