DAM Meathead
DAM Meathead single know fuzz pedal from fx layouts. I was not a big fuzz fan, but found it excellent for The Black Keys - 'Til I Get My Way. I found it particular good for single not playing unlike the ColorSound One Know Fuzz that sounds great with chords and not so much with single notes or solos. Perhaps it is just my particular builds of the pedals. On the way are Meathead Deluxe and Octavia with Oct/Fuzz on-off switch so I can maybe replace this pedal on my board.

Pedal Board Size
Want to buy a travel case for my small pedalboard. It is big enough to mount 4 pedals and my diy battery power unit. The dimensions are 35x20dx8 like the one below.

Emerson EM Drive Clone
I made this one to get some imediate satisfaction and build confidence building pedals. I failed on quite a few of my other builds, so I went for this pedal to prove to myself I can make one that works (lol).

As you can see, the build is as simple as you can get.
Super Hard On Clone with Volume Control
Have not tried it out too much yet, but works fine. On my next build of this version, I need to move the dc jack to the other side and move the phone jacks down to have more room for a battery inside.
Based it off of this layout and moded it to include a volume control.

Will upload a gut shot and sound file.
2015.01.11 Update. Here is an updated version of my SHO with Vol. I moved the phone jacks and dc input so a battery can be used. Also included is a gutshot.
