Thanks! I have a kooky idea so I’ll keep it a surprise. Hoping to get a full proto done tomorrow.

Proto 2 (1 was in a Custom Yoyo can and worked easy and great)
It didn’t work! Lol. Had to take it apart and was angry so I did it violently. A couple words came off the little board and there was stuffing in the output jack.
Proto 2.1 (which is just proto 2 after some battlefield sutures.
Works great and picks up a local radio station!
Next few will have jacks toward the equator, switch in top, and eyes.

Man, you gotta let us know when you decide to sell some of these.

I’m flattered! Maybe after I practice on my friends I’ll see what you have for trade!

It has a built-in mute switch when you squeeze it. That’s a design feature and a selling point. 
I think I’m going to abandon the amigurumi enclosure for some kind of stupid toy I find at a dollar store. Not having a solid place to mount the little board and I/O is a problem I’m not smart/patient enough to solve.

I grew up in a musically inclined family with a dad who was a full time musician/bassist and in later years a sound engineer til he retired. I gave up formal music lessons when I was 9 and just hated learning the organ. Few years later, I learnt to play drums on my own when the studio he worked had a Roland TD-7 drumkit. Since then I’ve found drumming to be my thing and have been playing since in church, bands and now to myself at home

Thank you!! I would be enjoying it a lot too if I wasn’t so distracted with yoyo’s lately lol 
Don’t give up. It’s so cool.
What about I 3D print you some spheres that you can put the guts in and then put that inside your amigurimi?

Well I appreciate the encouragement! I really only need like a 1x1x2" box to shove in there and the foresight to use longer wire lengths haha. But here’s the FuzzBoat and Fuzz-a-Saurus!

As much as I’d like to do that, putting two of these in series sounds just awful. I’m going to try and find some sub-1k potentiometers to replace the trim pots on the little board so I can have two together in one… box? ball? boat?
Also they have no bypass, so it’s either on all the way, or nothing.
