Just a rework of my old Jen Crybaby. New paint matches my other pedals, homemade light plate is a bit rough round the edges but it works ok

Thanks everyone. Unexpected problem with it. The battery clip was wedged in at the tight end and the back of the positive terminal poked out of the plastic, shorting on the chassis. My my that battery got hot!

Light plates are made for wahs. That looks really nice.

Thanks Matt, they do look good under a wah. I should have just ordered one (see above) as they're thicker and have a better finish to the edges but it's that DIY thing you know?
As it happens, I've just done a 3 way shootout with my  modded Morley Vai, the Jen wah above and a lightwah. The lightwah still wins for me so this pedal will probably go back on the shelf where it's been for a while

Nice Rob, like that you've colour matched the light plate to the paint scheme.
Working on a mini sprung rocker pedal to use as an actuator for the lightwah. Putting in an extra jack to disconnect the ldr and use the remote one. Planning on using an LED/tapered blade to do the job then add lots of blinkenleitz. Just filling time while waiting for parts for my biggie... ;)

Was it that one I found in the old magazine that, I think, Mark Hammer linked us to the website with the archives of old issues of all types of magazines?

Boy, that sentence is awkward.
