Merci, vous aussi! ;) I've tried this method but there's no air bubble issue on yours...what's your trick?

Gracias!

I know, but the pedal i built does not boost...it just increases volume!

No special trick here...I spray a little clear both on the enclosure top and on the sheet and then carefully put it on top - no weight on it then, just a little pressure while positioning it. Then a couple of light clear coat. et voila'

les jeux sont faits...  ;)

actually the "no pressure" thinghie is quite important... when I tried it on my last build I made a mess: the fresh clear coat softens the under paint layer and if you push on it you will end up smearing the colours (I had a grey aluminum primer and cream white paint over it, it turned out all spotted >:()
Only those who attempt the absurd will achieve the impossible.

Ok, so I've noticed we all like light emitting borders here (hence the tutorial I wrote :D) but I got bored with it, so I decided to do something new...

That's brilliant, I want one :)

I have an idea....

Dont steal it unless you can do it proper!!!! >:( ;D

Countersunk-backlit-knobs. Think a ring of blue or in trace elliots case green around the knob...easy to do I think. just put the plexi inside and under neath the top plate..after you drilled what you needed to drill.

the spider is cool btw. :icon_cool:

Nice Valoosj !

    I made one effect with the bottom edge lighted and everyone loves it!  Also after that I made one similar to your spider one.  I will try to get a pic of it tonight and post it tomorrow.  I think you will like it!  I have been trying to get the other pedal that I made for someone with the bottom edge light back so I can take a pic of it, but my buddy won't give it up.  He thinks I want it back to keep.   :icon_lol: :icon_lol: :icon_lol: :icon_lol:

Peace!

Very wicked looking pedal Valoosj  :icon_twisted:
Niiiiiiiicccccceeee!!
But how does it sound?

Valoosj

Thanks men. The pedal goes from OD to fuzz, depending on the settings.
I like the tone as well, as far as I can say while playing on a noisy cricket :D

Jimmy-H, vanwaar ben je? Ik las gisteren je nederlandse post bij mn bloemenpedaal. En ook toolfan vermoed ik :p

Hey guys,

I just completed my first pedal!!!!!!! (YAY!)  It took me awhile, but luckily it worked the first time.

I just wanted to say thank you to all of you who helped me with my first pedal.

Here are some pictures of my new SparkleDrive!

Very nice, congratulations on doing such a good job on your first one and having it fire right up!

purkka, I love how your pedal is painted...Metallic Sparkle rocks...
BTW, did you paint the switch washer too? Didn't it get ruined by locking it?!

Does this tutorial exist or am I just not that good at searching?

Not "Old Scrotum, the wrinkled retainer" from Sir Henry at Rawlinson End?

Amazing.
