Worst Looking Pedal Pictures Thread - Post Your Disasters Here !!

[JKowalski]

I want to know how the lasers come in to the mix

Jkowalski-

When you turn the Threshold knob past 8 o'clock and max out Sensitivity knob the "pedal" goes into self-oscillation and you get a cheap 'laser gun' effect when you smack the strings on your guitar.

Here's the video of the box in action, the 'laser gun' sound comes into play towards the end of the video:

The playing is -ahem- spotty at best.

Oh yeah, I did listen to it, and thought it sounded great!

I really don't know why I haven't built a UF yet! Did I spot a few bars from 'Sweet Leaf' in that video? 

[I like Grunge]

hey, I'm glad about this thread 
I can see, I'm not the worst builder in the world, but something here is really cool. The Fish-thing-with-eyes (or what the f*** ever) is really cool. It is really an eyecatcher.
My worst pedal is my 'mr. Switch' Ab Box

I am so stealing the sardine tin idea one day, I can cover it with sign vinyl and it will look like a sardine tin with a pro paintjob.

lpb-1 I build into a blister pack. I used my iron to melt the holes. I got frustrated trying to wire up the 3pdt toggle switch so I never did put the led in it.

Waterslide decal didn't print quite as sharp as I had expected (that's what I get for doing it in MS Paint), and then it got a little snagged when I transferred it.



I picked the most dinged up knobs I had so it would match.

nbab, that looks both intentional and awesome, like a 1980s printer did it; don't confuse "disaster" with "accidentally fantastic"

[tasos]

I was etching some boards in sodium persulphate.....only I'd had it on the shelf for too long and not much was going on.......




So I cleaned them all up REAL GOOD, honest I did, and then I dunked some of them in some ferric instead.  The result was not as expected......
