Can you give me one example where intrastate activity has a substantial effect on regulated interstate commerce and the USSC has ruled that this activity will be allowed?

Prior to the FDR court there was no "substantial effect" test.

Not what I asked. Give me a pre-FDR court opinion where an intrastate activity had a substantial effect on regulated interstate commerce and the court allowed it.

You claimed that the Founding Fathers denied Congress the authority to regulate intrastate activity, thereby making SOME interstate regulatory efforts less effective -- I'd like to see an example of SOME of those.
