Welcome to some of the pleasures of owning vintage equipment. You either need to learn to repair it yourself, Pay out the butt to have someone else do it for you, or start buying modern equipment.

There are ton's of resouces on the internet for diy stuff but not so much for diy building FX's

I build a simple little drive box a long time ago, but i think i gave it to my brother. that was a long time ago.

Try this link if you want to get started but i'm sure there is info on your little box on the interwebs.

it's cool they have a starter booster for $15 bucks it does not have a switch or a box but it may be something to get started with.

It's been ordered...

Any of y'all who are interested, the buildyourownclone site has a deal with a booster box and singal tester for free for first time buyers and all you have to pay is shipping.

Buildyouronwclone first time customer deal

It does not come with a encloser or foot switch but would be a good place to start.

I'll update y'all on the progress
