Been working slowly but surely on things the past few days.
Got both boards stuffed and wired into MaxMap's dual FY-2, now I'm finding nice circuit bends to finish it off.
Got all the parts in for Tendollarcat's triple pedal (compressor, booster, bass RAT) today.
Also got the parts to finish modding sergiomunoz74's RAT with 3 way clipping, 3 way drive/fuzz/distortion switch, better filter response.
The parts for Tommaster's giant mega pedal are all in and I will be drilling out the enclosure ASAP.

SSStampede -> giant delay like the one posted a page or two back -> SHO booster all completely patchable!

Hooooly moly. Mother of all pedals!
This pedal should so be called the holy moley. Etch that little critter from ground hog day into it with a halo above his head hahaha.

Hahhahahahahahahah
It's in one of the giant slope enclosures like the other one except even bigger! It's freaking huge. I cannot even begin to describe how large the pedal enclosure is. Gonna be drilling it and mounting the hardware then I will post pictures!!

Now for some actual pictures.
Here are the guts (so far) of MaxMap's dual FY-2:

Got the parts for Tendollarcat's multipedal, drilled that out this morning and mounted the hardware. Optocomp -> Boost -> Bass Rat:

Lastly, started drilling Tommaster's MEGA pedal. I told you guys the enclosure was huge haha

Tonight I'm going to work on the FY-2 some more, still trying to find decent circuit bends for it that make it sound awesome.
Also been plotting out the mods for sergiomunoz74's RAT. Gonna make it so it can clip 4 ways, gonna use a 3 way and a 2 way switch so it can have silicon, germanium, led, and no clipping.
Gotta finish plotting all the hardware for Tommaster's mega pedal too, but I'm not sure if that will be today or tomorrow.

Evan thank you so much for your hard work.
I am so pumped to get this guy!

No problem dude! I've been trying to find the most worth-while bends so they don't just all sound the same haha
The first bend I found is one of the knobs- it bumps the mids up and adds a HUGE boost the more you crank it.
The first set of toggles turns both of the fuzzes into heavy EXTREMELY LOUD boosts, which sounds awesome when you run the first fuzz into the second- it cuts through the gate of the second fuzz while staying nice and scuzzy.
Tonight I'm going to try having one of the sets of switches add bigger input caps to the circuit, and possibly the second set be for larger output caps to get some fatness up in the fuzz. I will report my findings!!

again you are going above and beyond my expectations and I am just so happy right now.

Found a new bend for MaxMap's FY-2 guy, it takes the place of the first one that I found yesterday- keeps more of the fuzz in tact while still creating a hell of a boost.
Also assigned one of the extra pots for each circuit as a master volume, the original volume knob becomes more like a texture knob with the boost bend and in general, so now you have fuzz volume and master volume. 3 more bends to go and it'll be ready to set sail!
Also got the drilling done on sergiomunoz74's RAT and mounted the switches for that. Going to install all of the new diodes over the next few days onto the switches.
Lastly, I did some more drilling on Tommaster's mega pedal! Just a few more things to drill out, then I will be doing all of the drawing on it and clear coating!
