I'll make this short and sweet.

I started with this :



And this:



And ended up with these:







Need to replace the pots though. For these knobs (Supposed to be split shaft and knurled):

Thats a beauty! Thanks for posting the pics..

  What type of wood are you using?  and how thick?  Do you think the wood will hold up when stomping regularly? in other words
do you think it is gig worthy...     How about your grounding plane,   will you need to line the inside with copper tape?   Sorry for the questions
but I am thinking of building a wooden enclosure myself...

thanks,

Hello,
great pedal, really good lookin' !!!

A real pity that the beautyfull ptp-board is covered from the jacks left and right...

What diode-type did you use for the base-emitter-stabilisation? Looks vintage  ;)

The pedal reminds me of my "Woodface", a Fuzz Face in a wood-laminated-(bookmatched)-enclosure:

I built a 2x12 cab out of Baltic Birch and had some wood left over.
I have some copper foil I am going to line it with.
The wood is fairly thick. Could be gig worthy, for awhile, depending on if you have Pb feet or not.

And maybe I will move that PCB and just mount it on top of the pots :)

No diodes in there. Built just like that layout.

Magnus, your's look awesome.


Thanks for all the kind words everyone.
Now, I'm off to fill my body with caffeine (just woke up).
