Re: Fitting 300 Series into a Frac

2006-11-20 by schierld

too funny...I haven't checked this group in awhile, and i jump in
tonight, and i think folks are talking about my tiny modular--if its
the photo with the krazy kat and bikini space girls faceplates. 

re: Grant was there...hmm, i thought he was, but i could be wrong.
when i ordered the Wogglebug, I had two partially filled frac-racks.
when i figured out how big the 300 modules were, I hacksawed that
space in front and held the whole works together with a 1.5" wide
chunk of aluminum (the 2 CGS psycho LFOs in pseudo-Wiard faceplate) in
preparation for the arrival of the wogglebug. on the big day, Grant
shows up at my apartment and i thought i'd be all slick and just slide
the WB in the hole in the racks, but i hadn't taken into acct that
it'd be quite a bit deeper than a fracrack. oops.

now, i *thought* that I hacksawed a hole in the back of the racks
right then and there, but then again, the old memory ain't what she
used to be. maybe i waited til Grant left. maybe i've just told that
story that way so many times that now that's how i remember it. 

either way, that was a pretty good day. acquiring what is still the
jewel of my current modular and getting to hang out with the good Dr.
Richter in person.

best,
dan
