Very nice, Rocklander.

Looks like you used the flanged-lid case.  Very good if you want to screw the unit to the pedalboard so it doesn't get stolen or shift around when you stomp on it.

yep, I've started using them so I can just pick up the pedalboard all in one.. previously I was using the bicycle chain link method.

In honor of the 2012 Mayan calendar, yesterday I put together a Mayan artwork themed Cinco de Mayan (Mayo Muff) build.  In my haste to drill it out at work during lunchtime, I completely screwed up the drilling (all of my input/output sockets were punched 180 degrees out of phase).  I didn't notice until I went to drill the DC socket.  I was able to salvage the case, but I ended up with the input being socket in a different location than I usually put it and my first glory hole by the output socket. 

I had just verified the board and wanted to play with it over the holiday so I decided to build it anyway.  Besides, an extra hole in my Mayan pedal isn't the end of the world.   :mrgreen:

I really like the artwork, so I will probably build another with proper in/out socket orientation for my mini board at some point and either put this on a different board, or sell it off.

For this build, I decided to do a 1590A through-hole board as a change of pace from my normal SMT stuff.  At the time, I didn't have BC550 trannies, so I built it with 5088s.  I received some BC550s yesterday, so I will build another Mayo board with those to compare.

Is that symbol from 'Legends of the Hidden Temple'?

If so, kudos to you my friend, you just nostalgia'd the hell outta me.

No, it is just a Mayan symbol I found online.  It seems to be fairly common as I found it in multiple spots.

The other Mayan pedal I built got snatched up., so I built a second.

I have a feeling that getting "snatched up" might be an occupational hazard for these beauties.  You may need to build a third, and a fourth, and ...

Is this laser engraving?
