This may or may not be a Wampler Plexi.

Well, it's a Jimilee Plexi, that's for sure. Noice one!

Thank you. I started putting my name on them because, how many posts have you seen, "Who's pcb is this?" I figured I'd take the guess work out of it.

Nice one Jimi, I like how you did the tweed artwork on the plexi! When are the phasers coming???!!!

Looking for one I haven't built yet that's not impossible to layout.

Yeah, I gotta double down here. If you're going to do this much design work you really need to do all the phasers.

I thought about doing a 45 and a 90 on one board, maybe, I don't know.  So much pressure.

The main thing is practice, IMO. It doesn't matter what you do, as long as you do. I was at this for many years before I genuinely felt confident. But that's me. You're already doing better than I was at the same timeframe. Just keep at it!

Thank you sir. I've done a hummingbird just for practice as well.  I've got a couple of things I've built up, but don't plan on boxing. They sound ok, nothing great. I've still got a few more to build and several to fab after I found errors and fixed them. I'm rather proud of the super rat. Sure it was simple, but I haven't seen anything like it, I've only heard of one other that was a limited run. I'm gonna try tracing some, but taking apart a pedal makes me a bit leary, I'm not sure why. I want to trace the Grunge pedal.

As if this weren't long enough, I've gotta fab the OS2 drive you drew out a while back, it's one of the ones I need to send off again, I found errors on my layout.

Well, I don't even remember the OS-2. But that's not surprising b/c I have the memory of a goldfish. But, I wouldn't mind building your SuperRat. The Rat remains one of my all-time favorites in all its forms.

Hey, no problem. I think I have your address around here somewhere. I'll get one sent out. Anything else you'd like?
