How did you fix the PCB on the Bender without the screws coming through the box? Very nice guts man!

Focalized, I wondered the same thing? Your pedals look real classy, but the "mysterious" standoff mounting  ;) will haunt me... Are the standoffs glued to the enclosure?

This one is called Astro, and be careful that you don't do it!



Tried using t-shirt transfer paper. The paint started to melt..... Removing the burnt on paint from the iron is my next adventure, but, the result is that the paint looks a bit wrecked, and actually suits the vintage sound of the pedal. A happy accident if ever there was one!!!

It's based on the trotsky overdrive, but the only value that's the same is the gain dial (and even that's 47k instead of the 50k!!)

The cut switch is a centre off switch. It's got two options. Up cuts out the high end, which sounds great with a low output pickup. when switched down, it basically filters out most of the clipping, so it's kindof a unclean-clean boost... sort of. It's made using a GT404 and two D18 diodes.

I also mounted the board (as small as it is) to the pots, so it's all much more stable. I had a bit of an issue with the DC jack, but i found out that it was just a cold solder joint. other than that, it was a really smooth build. I'd like to think i'm making good progress. Here's a gut shot. Much neater than previous efforts, right? ;) still got a long way to go! But i cant wait to try this out on my vox on monday. EEE!

Ten different boxes and it looks like about six different techniques for finishing.  And they all look good!  And you don't even have any entries in the "Worst Looking Pedal Pictures Thread - Post Your Disasters Here" thread.  Tell me you have something worthy of this thread:

but you decided not to post it.  Getting such good results with every different technique you try just doesn't seem right.

I re-housed my PWM. It was in a boring all white box with black knobs. It's one of my favourite effects so I thought I'd give it a makeover.

my new design.  3 PT2399s in parallel with an LFO to modulate delay times.  Named after the Belgian style of beer, not a weird typo.  Hopefully I can get some soundclips up soon.  Chorus/vibe effects get really deep with another delay resonating with it.  All of the feedback knobs go back to the same spot which feeds all the chips so there's lots of cool cross-modulation between the delays.

That sounds really interesting - can't wait to know more about it!  :icon_biggrin:

Very nice!

I do dislike tall enclosures like that though..

me too, but unfortunately, I have not acquired the shorter enclosures.  It will look good on this I guess  ;D

My first post and my first completed pedal. It sounds amazing, but of course I'm biased. I'm sure you can figure out what it is from the name.
I plan to float it around to some local players and get their opinion.
Thank to all here for your inspiration. Note: I built this on a Radio Shack IC project board. Pretty easy. I had a few bugs but they're all worked out. It's dead quiet. Switching is dead quiet as well.

I posted the photos here:

There's also pictures of some of my amps there as well.

Thanks again,

Steve
