Here's the deal.

I built a bunch of Klons, and I even built the confirmation build for GtrPlaya's project.

So I had to order those stupid weird value caps and resistors.

I believe there are 2 caps and 2 resistors that are not carried by the common pedal part suppliers. But I might be forgetting, because my war chest is pretty deep, and I only ordered what I needed. YMMV.

This is the thread to ask for stuff, but here is what I am thinking:

The two caps and the two resistors are not expensive, but SOMEBODY had to buy a hundred of each! HAHA!

I am thinking a few bucks CONUS would be a lifesaver for a few of you, and not too much of a PITA for me.

Let's see how much interest there is, and I'll decide how big of a hole I want to dig, HAHA!

I assume you speak of the 422K, 392K, 390nf and 3.9nf?

The 27nf can be a bit of squirmy one to grab, too.

Yes. Those are the values.

I will put together a picture and description of those 4 or 5 parts, and post it.

In my world, 10% is close enough for OD/Dirt circuits. I usually run closer, but I wouldn't bat an eye at those values, and they certainly aren't enough to kill a build!

I am wrapping up packages to mail on Monday. Keep the orders coming, fellas!

I will totally ship to Canada. Just add $1.00 for the slightly higher postage and messing with a customs form.

No problem.

I will send a confirmation email to those of you that have sent me money and information to the gmail address.

They LOVE me at the P.O. 'round these parts!

I need to check my parts stash, I think I have everything but the 430k resistor, but if I'm missing more than that, I'll be in on this for two sets.

Hey Fellas,

Here's the deal.

As far as I can tell, NOBODY has recieved these parts I sent. I have a funny story about a guy at the local post office, who is a long standing customer of a pro builder you all have heard of, so maybe he is now a mole trying to kill my business! HAHA

Either that, or possibly more likely, since I mailed nearly all of them on the same day, there is a box of little padded envelopes stiing somewhere on a loading dock that lost it's way.

I really don't mind repacking some bits and sending them again. It is therapy for me, anyway.

But a couple Yankees and one Canadian that expressed an interest in these bits never sent me any $$ or information.

So if y'all want to be included in the next shipment, let me know, please!

Paypal and contact address:

BYOCRBMoA@gmail.com

Which makes me just about out.

I can do more packs with an extra 4-5 day turn, becuase I am ordering stuff anyway.

I have one cap value that y'all bought 20 of!

Confirmation that I did not receive mine. I had forgotten about it until now, heh. Sorry for your extra hassle, bah.

Double Update:

First, I am reshipping the last of the packages today or tomorrow.....once again, thanks for your patience. What should have been a simple helping hand turned into a pain in the A$$.

Also, because I ran out of one value of caps, I needed to buy some more, and this is the sad part.

Cascade Surplus was able to provide me with 20 caps that I needed to refill my orders. But VERY sadly, they are closing up shop.

If you live in Portland, Oregon, or near it, you should stop in and visit one of the last places I know of where you can still walk in and see thousands of bits, just laying in bins, waiting to be fondled and picked and taken home to become part of your favorite circuit.

Not trying to be funny. I will miss them.

Chris
