Just found this, which looks great

I lurk and get schematics here:
http://www.freestompboxes.org

I buy stuff here:

Both excellent music orientated electronics retailers, unfortunately based in Germany. But cheap.
http://www.musikding.de/index.php/language/en - paypal only
http://www.banzaieffects.com/ - accepts Credit Cards
http://www.maplin.com - for LED bezels, stripboard, purple LEDs, stuff I forget from the above two
http://www.rapidonline.com/ - They have standoffs and some good deals

Interesting how far away from my SaltBooster this is, plus my layout is more economic.

www.smallbearelec.com has good prices and fast shipping. i've used them before.
they have alpha pots for really cheap.

this place has a bunch of schematics.

just found this one.

Great link.

Thought as more of us seem to be into making our own effects we should have a thread where we can list various sources for parts/info etc, then perhaps one of the mods could create a sticky for all the links?

Nice work. Particularly recommend the tech pages on Beavis Audio- he's just revamped them and they're really useful. There's also a bit of the site dedicated to sourcing cool and unusual knobs/enclosures.

We have a lot of them in this thread already, Tim.

I like this one- they're cheap and have 3PDT switches the cheapest, plus useful size 125B box.

Mike... where's the love?

I must have left it in my skinny jeans.
