Vintage correct 1176 PCB

[Janalex]

Hi all

I’m sorry if this may be well know but does anyone make an 1176 PCB carbon copy of the original?

no, as pcb layout falls under category of automatic copyright

Hi Jan,

Do you mean PCB copy and then produce the board?

 

[Janalex]

Yes. I mean has anyone made their own full size 1176 pcb with the original circuit and similar layout for their own project. I was hoping someone has some image files I could use to do something similar.

I saw a video that SolderAddict sent from youtube. I think it is useful to you. The title is DIY Gyraf G1176 build Part2 - Problems and finish.

Why would you want something like this - other than for possibly counterfeiting them..?

I'm wondering if they just want a very accurate clone and they're expressing themselves poorly. Maybe English isn't their first language.

If you want a very accurate clone just get these. I built 2, they're very good.

Yes it was to make a very accurate clone of course with axial caps, zener diode, etc..

I built one of the Rev. A kits from Hairball as well and am very happy with it. It was a joy to build and now it's a joy to use.

Ditto - I've built Rev A and Rev D Hairball clones, and they're more than close enough for me.

I built two Hairball Rev A units years ago and they are amazing. Absolutely spot-on and much quieter than the originals.

Adding on to the Hairball train, have both A and D units and they get used in the studio constantly.

Great for new DIYers too as the kit has awesome explanations of the circuit. Also super affordable.

One more for the Hairball. My Rev D is among my most-used pieces of hardware.
