Hello gentlemen,
This is my first build report and given the unusual amount of awesome builds I'm a little ashamed to post.
Hopefully you guys will go easy on me.
This build is called Hecate (a greek goddess of witchcraft) and is a clone of the fulltone OCD (amazing layout from Madbean). The board is etched and I've built it to the BOM except for a 4558 instead of the TL082.
As you can see, the enclosure is not a typical Hammond (they are rather expensive in Brasil).
Sound is awesome and I have very little noise (much less than I would expect)



Sorry for the long post and the eventual english absurdities (I'm brazilian, after all)

What a great first build report. NEVER feel ashamed by your builds. We all have learned from our/other builds and that is the best part of this forum. The amount of knowledge that is tossed around here free of charge and the time people take to help troubleshoot is amazing. When I first started building, I looked at build reports all day long and found all the things members did that I loved and tried to replicate it. I even contacted many of them to ask questions and simply posted the question "how the heck did you do that" and many helped.

I like the enclosure you are using as it looks different. Your off board wiring looks great, nice and tidy. The OCD is a really nice sounding circuit. Enjoy it!

Great job and look forward to seeing you next build.

Nice build, keep posting them. Your English is very good (and I am English after all).
...and then of course I've got this terrible pain in all the diodes down my left hand side...

That's so cool!  Good use of space inside that enclosure, too.

This is way better than my first build. waaay better.  You did a great job with the wiring inside.  Really impressive.  Keep them coming.

Thanks guys, I'm actually really proud of the wiring.
But to be fair, this is not my first build, just my first build report
