boosted red llama

[Vallhagen]

My earlier experience of the Thunderpuss/Jack Orman mosfet boost and Red Llama sais that they make a perfect couple:) ... So i put those two circuits on the same PCB and boxed it.

...also, it feels great to return to square one now n then. So i let the 8 yo kid paint the enclosure. He was done in about 30 seconds. "completed already?" ... "Yes!"... "sure?"... "Yes!" "ok". Simplicity is beautyful.

Cheers:)

Paint sharpies and umlauts? Excellent, sir.

Just toothpicks and white "hobby paint" for the letters sir:) Cheers and thanx!

I'm always having fun reading you labeling out to myself in a very exaggerated accent ööööverdrive! 
Just got some of those jacks that I'm gonna try out in my next pedal!
you're kid is a true artist!!! minimalistic!

Hehe... wwwaahhhuuuööööööverdrive!!!

I noticed that you just finnished a little grëën wönder. Nice work too!

Thanx mate!

Which comes first in the circuit if you have them both on, the Llama or the boost?

I like the technique you used for wiring the LEDs. I'm sure I would have over-thought it! Is each resistor in the usual 4.7k neighborhood? Or is it necessary to do something different, since they're sharing the power?

Hi Bret.

The booster comes first, then the OD. Try it on your breadboard:)

Yes, the LED current limit resistors are both the "common" 4k7, and as they are wired as parallell circuits 9V-gnd, theres no need to think different:)

Awesome...  Love the paint and the led wiring

Aren't the umlauts actually mouse (as in Mickey Mouse) ears?

Nice build!  Red and black are the team colours for Canterbury, where I live... woo!
