cheers guys...

It looks great, Rob!
One question: how do you get that perfect vertical scratch? Is the same of the external aluminium top panel of my laptop's brother. You have some secret tool, right?

[deadastronaut]

sanding block 180 grit paper initially ,

then use the same , now worn 180 to sand of paint...so it gets 2 sandings.

and sand in one direction..

Do you clear coat too Rob?

[deadastronaut]

not any more, i used too but it looks bad after a few digs n scratches..

ive found if you sand enough it stays pretty bright and doesn't suffer oxidizing much at all, if any really

going by my older pedals i still have anyway.....

[italianguy63]

Cool-- I haven't and was wondering if I should?

One more thing off my worries list.

It's been a while - too cold and damp to paint until recently.  Here's an EA Tremolo ("improved" version at GGG) for my tame German guitarist:

Mark- love the graphic 

Etching, paint, transfer, decal or?

Mark- love the graphic  

Thanks - customer's choice.  He's a biker.  Those are his tiny knobs too.

Etching, paint, transfer, decal or?

Paint + decal + clearcoat.

Over here stating a biker has a tiny knob would get you into deep dodo.

Ah, but he has three.

PS-1A phaser pedal. This is based on some old keyboard unit, originally, mods provided by a few great guys over on the Mad Bean forums.



I'm too lazy to bother with the etched version, sorry.

This is running off 12V AC, not 9V DC. Linear power supply on board, nice and clean with no ticking

You hang around waiting for months, then two come along at once.

This is not exactly a stompbox. It's tube mic preamp. I spent about a year for prototyping and 2 versions of the PCB.
So, here guys is Eva studio tube mic preamp:


And of course a tube pOrn

Stunning Niki! If I made anything that looked so good on the inside as well as the outside, I'd put a glass top on it

[Nikolay]

Thanks guys. It's not easy  to make a good looking device. I spent really so much time to do that. I'm able to make it faster but the final result will be different and probably I will not like it. In my opinion the pcb design is one of the most important part (or process) of making any electronic device.

Thanks again!
