Melx2 on the right. Bought it with a missing battery snap. Ended up replacing that, the pot, transistor, and adding a dc jack.

1) on the 1/4" jacks, are you using lock washers as a spacer to keep your threaded section from showing on the outside. having it look so damn clean is the mark of a master builder IMO.

2) are you using JB weld or epoxy to attach your handmade battery cradle?

3) the wiring is so clean. it is like the complete opposite of every devi pedal I have ever opened. I don't see the need to shrink wrap so much my self but if you have the time then sure. your products are definitely high end. raise your prices lol.

Yes, I use 3/8 internal tooth lockwashers to anchor the jacks and to keep the bushing of the jacks
inside the box (thread bushing flush with the nut)

are you using JB weld or epoxy to attach your handmade battery cradle?
I use that red backed 3M indoor outdoor rubber tape. It sticks like a mutherfucker
and has a little flex so it doesn't crack or break off. It's rock solid.

the wiring is so clean. I don't see the need to shrink wrap so much my self but if you
have the time then sure.


Heat shrink just keeps things tidy and the ends from fraying or shorting. It's not that
big of a deal but it looks tidy so I do it. Just takes a few seconds.

your products are definitely high end. raise your prices lol.
Thanks for the kind words! I've toyed with raising prices. I work about 13+
hours a day and still do not get all that I want to get done... My time
working vs price is probably $5 and hour. Should just flip hamburgers and make
more $. :lol:

Thanks bud! I painted that enclosure a couple months ago, and finally got around to using it. Had been a while since I sprayed anything, and I think I spent like 2 minutes on that one. Turned out pretty decent. The pedal sounds good too! I got both those pcbs from culturejam some time ago.
Glad the turret boards are working out for ya! The SM/VFM are great circuits. Btw, I placed an order recently so I can make some more. I got black boards this time :cool:
