Inspired by Valoosj's tutorial on light emitting border, I decided to have a go at one myself. 





Thanks Valoosj for the great tutorial.

Nice build!

Nice one Liddokun!

Nice to see my idea getting adapted here. I'm allready planning on some other effects including lasers..

my current setup

power wah > orange squeezer comp clone > ocd clone >  3 in 1 (queen booster, ts808, bsiab2) > ML2 > supa nova > mxr noise gate clone >digitech chorus > behringer delay > nurse quacky > valvecaster

am also planning on switching the digitech for an easyvibe and adding a tremolo pedal soon
also seriously considering on modding the case of the supa nova into a light emmiting border one hehe

Nicely done!
All credit goes to ~arph though. It was his idea. I merely visualised it.

[~arph]

Yes but you were kind enough to do the tutorial 

[liddokun]

I want to see if I can attach some plexi glass to the front of the pedal, and have  lettering over it, and use the same method.  This way, the letters light up.  Might be a while until I can find the time to do so though.

This is giving me inspiration for something cool (which I will never do unless I really get my act together!), where you could have the PCB have the letters for the controls etched into it, an LED backlight behind it, and then a plexi top to the pedal, so you can see the LED lighting up the etched portions of the PCB.  Might not be great for RF shielding, but it could look neat, I think.

If you shine light into plexiglas it will only show where the surface is disrupted.. So if it's a clean flat piece, the light will come out on the sides.. however if you engrave text into the glass the text will also light up 

Now.. Id like to see some examples of that  hut hut

By the way, props to both ~arph and Valoosj for respectively advancing the art of DIY stompboxery.  And for conducting themselves with class:

It's always beautiful such a light border.

Man, those light emitting borders are SO COOL!  I've got to put one in my next project!

i have a question about the led border, what does he mean by sanding the led?

[earthtonesaudio]

Sanding the sides of the LED makes is so the light is diffused through the sides.  When you put the LED through the hole you drilled in the plexi, you want light to come out the sides of the led so it goes outward toward the edges of the pedal.

I couldn't have said it better..

how do you like the ML2? sound good? versatile? better than the MT2?
