I have a random assortment of parts, feel like I need a tone bender or something similar in my life, anyone else thinking of building something out of junk they have lying around?

Not unless I can make a pedal out of old toilet rolls and used tissues.

I had the plan to build some boosts and fuzzboy pedals to sell but my $300 shipment of parts is waylaid in Singapore due to their ports being a bit funky at the minute.

It's not the components, it's the jacks, enclosures, and switches.

I have a half dozen PCBs I may get around to. Will prolly recover a speaker cab too. Lots of study I could be doing, mind

Wish I could, alas no pots or enclosures. I like using PCB's too, and didn't quite get an order in. A bugger really.

I might have another go at building a basic boost, got all the parts to make a SHO just not the skill to make it work!! Always seem to manage to get signal to pass through it but when the footswitch engaged....nothing!

there was a thread at diystomboxes.com a while back about what you could make from the components in a dead LED lightbulb, could be useful, I have a ton of electronics to repurpose, old modems etc, but as with others a shortage of enclosures and jacks.

I've got a spare sho PCB here. You could have it if it weren't for this pesky virus.

Enclosures are a non issue for me, I just 3d print them as needed :mrgreen:

That looks a bit odd, are you sure thats right or isn't it properly isometric?

Or its about 100m long and its got perspective :)
