The Sushi Box FX Secret Society

I'm trying to decide what I want to do for December. I'm going to have some family visiting so I will want some time off, just not sure how much. I'm deciding between:

A) take the whole month off, don't build anything
B) do a reduced monthly batch like I've done in the past
C) special edition Space Heaters

A!
Don't even look at a tube unless you're jamming out.
 
Either A) or F) work on the Greenhouse :D
Oh right, I've had Greenhouse prototype boards sitting in my basement for a couple months now :P One of these days I'll build one...

A!
Don't even look at a tube unless you're jamming out.
My basement is pretty messy, there are tubes EVERYWHERE. If your eyes are open, you're looking at tubes :P
 
Greenhouse gets a double thumbs up from me! I'm a long time user of bypass loopers and a tube loop with clean blend would be an instant buy.

Here's one to get the blood pressure going:
This parcel costs Tax. The amount is determined, it's €22,20,-
Due to Covid restrictions, the post delivery personnel is not allowed to perform cash transactions.

So here is how ze Germanz handle zis:
The parcel gets loaded into the delivery vehicle nonetheless. It gets a nice ride through town. When it arrives at my doorstep, the post person scans it and prints out a label, which tells me that a failed delivery attempt has been made. The parcel will not leave the car. Instead it'll finish its tour through town, and go into the depot for the night, where it can be retrieved the next day.
I honestly was so naive to believe that they simply keep that parcel in the depot and have the delivery person simply hand out the label.
So instead of today, I could collect it tomorrow. My car's not here tomorrow so I'll get it Friday or Monday.

That's just craziness!
We don't do that. If we, the carriers, get it, we deliver it.. if for some reason we don't deliver to a house, we don't load the package in our vehicle... we write up a slip saying it's available in the office and delivery that to the box with any other mail.
 
Doesn't Christmas time deserve some sort of ' special edition ' SushiBox offering even if the full production run is cut back to allow for some personal rest and relaxation for the hard working Senor and his family . .... Rest and family time come first of course but say a simple circuit done in a small hand done batch - just saying ! ... Kelly

I'd vote A or C, if you're actually polling the audience.
 
That's how I ordered mine.
And it turned out great, I'll get pictures of it tonight. I was able to get the mids-selector label issue fixed as well, so it will be a good chance to show what that will look like from now on to accommodate that.

I'm leaning toward C, I'm not very good at not building things.

Wife: "I thought you said you were going to clean up the workshop?"

Me: "I know, I was organizing things and accidentally made a couple pedals."
 
Question for some of the folks - I'm looking around at light OD offerings - like a Blueberry, or a Pork Loin - I'm picking up a couple other brands to try, but what's in the SB line up that I should be looking at? I love my PA and Dr., and I'm thinking that the Smoke Signal (on order) is going to work as well, but, well, you know ... GAS.

I thought I read that Fluffy (also on order) has an internal trim, but I can't seem to find the post.

EDIT: first off, someone warned me about tube rolling, and I should have heeded the warning. Put a high gain tube in the PA and it's turned a little more gnarly. High gain tube in the Dr in V1 and V2, and I can dial in a nice, sweet breakup point that is pretty touch sensitive.

Fluffy Kitten's internal trimpots are for transistor bias, there are 4 of them for each of the 4 gain stages in the pedal.

yeah this feels like the joke where the two guys from the city drive up to the park and one is digging holes and the other one is filling them in again. A bystander watches for a bit and then asks what it is that they are doing and they go: 'Well, we're usually three guys, but the one who's planting the trees has called in sick today'.
