..... Excited to practice drilling more centered holes

-Alex

this excitement will pass. they are good looking things, the lpb1 look disturbs me, strangely. what are they pointing at? do they also excite at well drilled holes?

Ha! I had some images cut out of some old school books (sorry to any book collectors) and this one was the closest to fitting the enclosure. I am pretty sure they were originally pointing at a cave entrance or possibly a stop sign, now they point at the level of boost. I know I have more pointing images that are just begging to be used, be prepared for future disturbance!

I like the way this guy thinks. He will fit in just fine here!

Slow gear clone -> Krypron phaser (mutron clone)-> deep blue delay->thomasH reverb, flipper switch between each effect and hidden leds. Hell of a build, crazy sounds.

Impressive, but those toggles don't look long for this world...unless you have pointy shoes/boots and VERY good aim.

Right! I have tiny feet, but I really haven't put it to the test yet. It was more of a because I can type build.

Well, from the looks of it, your status LEDs are shining through a graphic applied over top of the chassis. If the toggle locations do pose a problem you could always use their current holes for the status LEDs, and move the toggles themselves back an inch or so, out of harm's way. It looks like you have the room for it.

Alternatively, play with the nuts for the stompswitches and toggles, so that the toggles are as low to the surface of the box as you can get them, and the stompers as high off the box surface, when pushed down fully, as you can manage.

Just go with the pointy shoes.

+1 I like Dave's solution better.

I think we're good to go with that particular shoe, up to size 14.

Great idea Mark, I didn't actually think about that, a little rewiring and we're good to go.

Not sure if this "counts," but this is a commercial pedal I bought (Mooer Pure Octave) that I LOVED the sound of but HATED the look of, so I sanded it down and refinished it, and I consider it a huge improvement. With a Fuzz Factory in front of it (the only way to use it, in my opinion) with both upper and both lower octaves it sounds a bit like a church organ, so I nicknamed it ORGANIC. Hands down the best $60 I've ever spent and it will probably stay on my board forever.

A+ on the enclosure
C on the carpet, it does the job but nothing more
