Went through your site, that LOLYCHORUS looks really awesome. I'm just getting into building my first pedal soon. A one knob fuzz. Awesome work, man.

Amy's Digital SLR + some bricks that were pulled out of our parapet wall in the insanely unplanned building works we had recently.

You should paint that shed to look like the Tardis!

Well I'll be listing one of the first PCB Dream Boxes on ebay shortly as I have to raise some funds to cover some house repairs so thsi might be your chance to get hold of one for a reasonable amount (and much quicker than getting on my 22-24 week waiting list)

Boring question Mike, where do you source the 120n box caps in the tone circuit of the IC muff? I've got my new boards in but can't find thems anywhere. Do you just sub 100n?

Yeah I just use 100nF. They sound fine to me. I tried paralleling up a 20nF but it made not much difference to my ears.

I don't want to whine about it too much because it's #firstworldproblems and all that, but:

Water was getting into the house, we discovered behind some boxing in the bathroom.
We originally thought it was just the render blown out from the back of the parapet wall and mortar cracked or missing between the copings. So we thought it was a case of hacking off, sealing with PVA and making good the render on the back of the wall, and reseating and cementing the copings.

Turned out the bricks in the parapet wall were all knackered, old and crumbly as fuck and were coming away with the render when it was getting hacked off, because the original cement was just ash and dirt, and was just dust now.... so long story short:

New Parapet wall + rendering - scaffold on house = bunch of money, and the house looks like shit.

PLUS

the Chimney renders are flaking away and need sorting also, along with the verges which were done with pit sand also.

Couple of grand and counting, hence I gotta sell some stuff.

Sorry to hear that Mike, houses are the worst. Hope it gets resolved without too much stress and that.

yeah it sucks, but that's life - and it's really just a small thing (financials aside), Amy has been really affected by it, she's not been able to work on her phD as there's noise and builders around constantly
