it's birch tree cortex, 3 ladybugs (i think that's what they are called in english?) and china ink finished in epoxy.

a peppermill for my daughter


a multi-face for me

[GREEN FUZ]

That`s beautiful. I could imagine it sitting on Jack White`s pedal-board.
I particularly love the way the knobs are laid out, allowing for indiscriminate switch stomping.

.......ladybugs (i think that's what they are called in english?) .....

Ladybirds  .

[greigoroth]

Ladybug is more commonly used in American English, but both ladybug and ladybird are correct 
Are they real ladybirds?

That's ace!
Normally I dislike large graphics on pedals but that's really tasteful.
Who's the artist? Looks a bit Japanese.

That's what they are called. I wonder what the future owner will think of it
Looks good anyways.

i can't remember the name unfortunately.  i found it in a google image search.

to all: yes they are real.


*runs for cover*



and i'm still de-bugging the circuit...

[kurtlives]

  good one

[hellwood]

WHAT IS THIS THING!!?? and what kind of guitar/amp/speakers were used!!??

As soon as I get the technique "perfected" I'll post a "How To do EZ Swirls" thread...

Here's the one from earlier, after the clear coat...I'm making it for a friend...old school fuzz, no LED or DC Jack !  :)

Here it is all wired up !



And a sound sample...he wanted the big loose bottom of a germanium, with the "spit" of a silicon.... (don't mind my sloppy playing...I couldnt find a pick !)

CLICK HERE FOR SOUND SAMPLE !

[gutsofgold]

First time etching pcb - brett's Hidrosis fuzz (which sounds awesome)
(Im)patiently waiting for the enclosure to come in the mail. I'm going to paint it blue to match the components and the wiring. 

Where did you buy those caps? They look nice. Really neat looking build BTW.

Janne

Yeah they are pretty neat looking compared to the boring old greens and browns. They are just the Xicon high voltage poly's from small bear.

So, are you the one that clear-coated over the pill bugs a while back? It was equal parts disturbing and creative 

[birt]

that's me.

WHAT IS THIS THING!!?? and what kind of guitar/amp/speakers were used!!??

Just something I came up with...its definitely FF based though.

Amp was probably my bassman...guitar was probably my 335

What are those silicon transistors your using it that crazy fuzz.

I'll have to look up the schemo, but IIRC it was a 2n3569 and maybe a 2n3566 ...something like that...

  Swirls do look cool !
  They're starting to look easy but messy..haven't seen any bad swirls yet..

just takes practice...my method isnt very messy at all.

the borax method, OTOH.....


These are my 2 latest ones... (clearcoated anyway...I have a couple more on the drying rack...)
