I build guitar FX pedals. Well… sort of. I’m LEARNING to build them.
Back at it after moving to #CA!! Building a Mutron V Micro from a board layout I got online. Almost feels like cheating to build like this, like Legos. #guitarpedals #guitar #pcb #cnc #3018pro #diy

Finally got my cnc working again. For those who care to know the issue which is 0% of all people, I was having a conflict between the GRBL1.1 preprocessor and the heightmap in Candle. Bottom line, I’m back baby!! #cnc #3018pro #diy #pcb #guitar

This is what a 20 degree bit looks like, and that tiny spec is the tip of the bit broken off!! #cnc #3018pro #diy

cut a board for the Tube Cricket amp I’m making, there are 4 issues with this board!! Guess that’s why it’s called prototyping 😫 Can you spot the 4 issues?? #cnc #3018pro #guitarpedal #tubecricket #diy

Tremelo project in process. Notice the PCB with switch in the center and as board mount. A board design concept I’ve been working on. #guitarpedals #guitar #dyi #cnc #3018pro

Secret project!! My first tube! Packed up my amps and of course can’t stop won’t stop… so messing around with making an amp. #electroharmonix #vacuumtube #guitar #effectspedal #diy #secret

Packing up my studio gear into a Pod while also try to conserve space. It’s me, I am the Pod Master. #pods #moving #music #studio

With my pedal making gear packed up, I’m restless. Attempting to put together a small combo amp design! #guitaramp #guitarpedals #diy

Packed up my cnc and all of my pedal stuff for my move to California in June. No more board pics until then 😭😭😭 BUT I have three boards to populate so all is not lost 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 #cnc #3018pro #guitarpedals #diy #moving #sanfrancisco #ca

Elka Dizzy Tone, going to use my Russian MP-35 transistors. Still messing around with switch mounted circuits, I like the approach for simpler pedals. #guitarpedals #cnc #3018pro #diy #guitar

My little Speaker Cranker!! So cute… #guitarpedals #guitar #cnc #diy

The cut out is so satisfying! #cnc #pcb #guitarpedal #guitar

Man I hate wiring switches…. so I made this neat little PCB mount for my 3pdt switches. Took about 30 minutes to mill the board but it’s a lot better than the mess in pic 3 🤮 #pcb #cnc #3018pro #guitarpedals #guitar #diy

It’s a tight package but it’s going to FIT 😬😬😬 EQD Speaker Cranker! #guitarpedal #guitar #cnc #3018pro #music

This is what a Gerber file looks like… this is what creates the cut files for the CNC router. #cnc #pcb #3018pro #guitarpedal #music #guitar

Got to use my Chili Pepper Booster in a jam last night, that germanium fuzz section on the LPB1 sounded amazing! #guitarpedals #diy #music

Designed a board to make a RG Keen transistor tester for germaniums. Looks pretty clean #guitarpedal #cnc #3018pro #pcb

Here’s the completed board, my second one. Much better than the first. Figured out how to remove unconnected copper areas and messed around with adding text. This is a simple Speaker Cranker #guitarpedal #guitar #cnc #3018pro #diy

Milling again! This time it’s a basic Speaker Cranker. No modification just a schematic I pulled off the internet #guitarpedal #guitar #cnc #diy

The Chili Pepper Booster lives!!! Just waiting on knobs in the mail. My daughter did the graphics. #guitarpedal #guitar #pcb #diy

#boxingday late to post this but wired up and boxed this dual booster pedal. My first workable board from my #cnc machine. It’s two boosters in one box, a modified SHO and modified LPB-1 with fuzz switch. Still working out some kinks. #guitar #guitarpedal #pcb

I’m pretty stoked about this!!! My first complete board. It’s not perfect but it’s mine and I love it. #guitar #guitarpedal #pcb #cnc #3018pro #diy

Cutting traces with the 3018 pro. Looking cleaner but not perfect. I may have damaged my bit with a failed Z probe. #guitarpedal #guitar #pcb #cnc

Heightmapping and ready to mill. Working on this dual booster +fuzz circuit. #guitarpedal #guitar #cnc #pcb #3018pro

That feeling when you get your layout Gerber files into Flatcam and find all types of issues and need to go back into @kicad.org and fix them 😫😫😫 #cnc #guitar #guitarpedal
