PSK FG-1; spot the differences

So I have this PSK pedal in that needs some repairing....... and while opening it up I had this sensation of "I have seen this before.........."

5 minutes before that I just finished repairing a Boss BF-2B

Spot on copy of the Boss BF-2; except for the manual knob. In the Boss pedal the depth knob goes into the manual knob, in the PSK the depth pot is grounded on that side.

the bf-2b is the single best bass flanger in my opinion - one day i´ll get around and make that damn PCB layout to build one or two clones with true bypass for myself (and my 2 pedalboards) - i already have a mn3204 lying in my parts bin just for that reason

no, thanks, i got an original one at home.

that´s why i know that it sounds so good.

i just can´t get around making a pcb, never did a pcb layout before, only vero (but some rather big, like boss oc-2).

cheers,
