Ok, better pictures of my Salad bowl fuzz with the plexi bottom!

That Salad bowl fuzz is beautiful! It's like Dalek's pet.  :o 8)


How did you cut the plexi into a nice circle?
How did you attach the bottom place to the metal bowl?

mongo


I attached the bottom drilling small holes and putting some L shaoed little metal plates.

Push pull tone switch for a clear bell like tone or a more bassy heavy, gainer tone.

Latest build, it's my take on a BOR: Combined BSIAB2 and SHO in a box - hence the name, Mar-sho-ll.  Strangely my SHO no longer crackles, it used to but stopped, still works fine though.  Artwork was done by taking swatches from photos of actual Marshall amps and assembling them in Inkscape, this was then printed out on a colour laser and stuck down with PVA glue and then clear coat applied over the top.  Unfortunately the texture on the grill cloth etc. got a bit lost, the white specs are just surface dust.  Might try and source some actual Marshall knobs to complete the effect.

Still battling to get my holes drilled exactly where I want - and this was with centre punching and a drill press - buying a vice for my press now.

Hey everyone, I'm new here and have almost finished looking at all of your pedals (I'm on page 391 of this thread) and felt that I should add my own.

Here is my first one, a passive A/B box


And my Orange Squeezer which I finished an hour ago. Some of you helped me out with it so thanks, I really can't believe it's working. I used Torchy's layout, it's a shame that I can't find any more of his.

Thanks! Your Prof Tweed looks great too. I like the push/pull switch tone pot idea.
I mount the board inside the enclosure and wire the pots before, so i found it's easier to solder on the board when it is upside down. All the wire are bend at near 90 degrees and of equal length (height) so the board can't move and it's laying (suspended) just near the edge so i put a foam in the cover and everything's fine...i think. I don't know if it's clear, i'm not so good in english.

Makore is commonly called African Cherry, which is why I thought that was what you had there.  It's redder than maple.

I have some nice curly Makore veneer that looks just like that.

Lacewood (silky oak) is just one of those woods I never cared for, along with Wenge.

The first pic is a curly maple top.
Makore is kind of like Mahogany but you can
get some quilted and mottled grain that is very dramatic
and has a lot of depth.

Lacewood/buttonwood is very dramatic, when you turn it a little
that heavy grain pattern changes and it looks more like
a solid wood grain.

That made perfect sense your english is fine. Do you use solid gauge wire or stranded to help support the board?

You could put an other pull-push pot for opening the negative feedkack loop, I like mine without it sometimes.  Nice !

My second materialized build... a Fulltone OCD. I did a really simple three coats of glossy black rustoleum paint without primer, just sanding, just to see how it would turn out. But, on that note, the pedal sounds pretty damn good.
