My first delay pedal, much like a Mad Bean Sea Urchin but with some changes due to components on hand and my regular junk that I throw on every pedal I make.

You did a very good work, Ben. I liked specially your way to paint. Good work!
That's all, Folks!

Thanks GiovannyS10! It's not perfect but good enough for me. I'm really trying hard to get the hang of this "hammered" spray paint but it's tricky. The bottom plate came out perfect though  :P

Agreed. Your hammer-tone finish is waaaay more evenly "hammered' and better looking than I have ever been able to achieve with that stuff!

It's been a while since I've actually finished anything (long story ::) ), but this was a build to replace one I sold to a friend off my gigging board. It's a combination reverb (GGG D-Verb) and clean boost (LPB1 wired point-to-point on the back of the pot). I've always been super jealous of Hexjibber's builds, so I wanted to try the multi-color fade thing, but apparently dark blue to light blue doesn't turn up that well :P The engraving is Mongolian block script, courtesy of the missus.

Gudday all.  Here's Stealth.  Smoothie, Glam, Smalltime + tap, Equinox II.

The tap is from http://uk-electronic.de/onlineshop/product_info.php?cPath=105_195_352&products_id=3099&osCsid=0622e90a18403e6cf9f89e22f30a9aa6

Etching primer with clearcoat, then laser etched.  Not recommended really, it came back from the engraving with some weird crazing in the clearcoat.  Polishing didn't get rid of it, so I was forced to cut it back *very* lightly with wet/dry sandpaper and then polish with the cut/polish compound.

As a result, the smaller text isn't as sharp as it was.  It also had lots of little bare dots around a few of the letters, so these have been filled in with a fineliner texta.  These pics are the before photos, as tightening the nuts causes the finish to chip off in places, so I've taken photos before all the extra fineliner.  Additionally, the pot shafts are different lengths, so I've put the knobs at the same height for the photos and have now shoved them down lower..

The Smalltime on vero is now playing funny buggers, so I may replace it sometime or at least check the solder joins.  I don't remember the Equinox being so distinctly delayish either.  Anyway, it's working, more or less.  I can see myself replacing the delay and reverb at some time.

The guts are ok, as far as these sort of things go.  Vero makes for a tough time making it look neat.

vigilante397 and Willypp, you guys need to cut yourselves some slack! Those are both excellent looking builds!

Willy, do you mind saying where you got those cool knobs?


vigilante397

Sorry, me again :P A while back I was super busy and didn't want to start any builds for people so I sold a friend a couple of my personal pedals off my board and have just gotten around to replacing them. This is my new Tremulus Lune built off the fabulous Tonepad PCB. I decided to try another multi-color job, this time just using every single color I have in my garage that isn't already on my pedalboard. I'm pretty stoked about how it turned out ;D

Your problem there is that you were trying to post an entire album with one link. On each picture there is a button for "get share links," and you just have to select the BBCode for forums (and adjust for size of course), and it should work fine.
