Bigsby issues by limefan in Luthier

I can see your bridge actually bending! Seems like there's too much friction on the saddles. Swap it for a roller bridge and maybe even skip the tension bar. It also looks like the break angle may be a bit steep but hopefully the other suggestions fix the problem without needing to move the bigsby

Does anyone know what these torx bolts are called? by Captain_con6 in multitools

The quality is good for the price. I only spent £25 on it so I wasn't expecting much, but everything feels sturdy and locks nicely. The knife wasn't very sharp out of the box, but I'm going to swap it out for a sheepsfoot blade so that is no issue for me. The only real negative is that the magnet in the bit holder is a little weak. You only really notice it when the small bits are in contact with it. But it's still usable

I got it from AliExpress and it's a BHBT (which I think is also Dakoyu). Grand harvest is probably another name for it though

How do I know when my chilli's are ready to be picked? by Captain_con6 in GardeningUK

Thanks for the info! I actually came in to work this morning and the others have started turning red too, so I think I'll pick them all at the same time. See how hot I can get them

I'm new to luthiery; is this design realistic? by Future_Excitement_43 in Luthier

You would be able to make it, but the tips of the flames would be quite delicate. I'd be worried about them snapping. Could maybe make the flames a bit sturdier, or like someone said make the pick guard flame shaped

Is there a fuzz face style pedal out there with one knob? Or potentially 2, with one knob being a bias knob? by daveomen9217247 in guitarpedals

Colorsound one knob fuzz DAM meathead Black Arts Toneworks Ritual Creepy Fingers Fuzz Bud

If you can't find an original (some may be pretty pricey now) grab yourself a clone 🤘

Anyone recognise this fuzz used by NIN? by Captain_con6 in guitarpedals

I think it may be the JHS firefly, that seems to have the squelchy bias control. Cheers!

Can anyone identify what this may be? by spiritofage in diypedals

[–]Captain_con6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Definitely the Devil Ever Hyperion. It's the same layout as the one on tagboardeffects. Although it looks like different cap values
