Squishy Octopus

[Anonymous]

For once I didn’t deviate from the bog-basic build, but that felt unwise for a compressor.
Also, for the first time, didn’t put the title on the front. But ‘Squishy Octopus’ isn’t very descriptive as a name, so it just got the picture.
Don’t know why it sounded purple to me. But it did, so there it is. Vallejo model paints applied via airbrush. Even the LED is purple.

Very fetching build. I find it quite effective as a basic no-frills compressor.

Indeed it is.
Testing it out, my first thought was “how is this different?” Then started experimenting, and–oh, it just does an amazing job of evening out my fumbling volume control. And with the way I had it set up, it didn’t even do it hard enough to notice until I leaned into the strings.

Not dramatic at all. But I approve.

Yes this circuit is Squishy, not Squashy.

Thanks for sharing!
