i had some help with the artwork... i think i might try to acid etch one to show off the artwork with more contrast.

edit: ohh.. but it's not labelled!! it's my optical tremolo rehoused into a 1590B size enclosure

Darron, your enclosures are so well done... I really want a laser etcher after watching your video.  Where do you get those killer LED's?

thanks! i have more of these blue 3 knob enclosures prepared so if you'd like me to engrave something for you then PM me.

the LEDs are from Altronics... now my secret is out... they are in australia though http://www.altronics.com.au/index.asp?area=item&id=Z0230

That box looks beautiful, Darron, no need for extra contrast.
Cheers!

Brilliant Mark! Love the finish (what is it?) and the faceplate.

[Slade]

I think he dipped the box into water, then throw it into his cat's litter box, and finally took the photo very quickly.
Am I right or what?

[markeebee]

That's EXACTLY how I did it, Slade.  Except you missed the bit where my cat sprayed it with Rustoleum Textured paint.

TBH, it's easy to get the paint to look fairly nice but it's not really tough enough for stompbox use.  And if you clearcoat, it's no longer textured.

I've seen 0 ohm resistors, but is that a 0 farad capacitor connecting the footswitch to ground?

nope, thats a 4.7k 0.01% resistor i threw in for the LED.. for optimal LED tone.

Well that makes sense!

Is that a brown led then?

I'm quite enjoying the duvet cover, actually...

P.S. Nice design and nice build, Mark.  One for my "to do" list.

D-verb on vero 
Haralds excellent layout

[Slade]

That's a BEAUTIFUL pedal... and the led is fantastic.
Congrats!

Outstanding pedal and photography!

Really dig the artwork and attention to detail. Is that a christmas light in there?
Also how did you do the lettering?

Cheers,
