So..... we have a contest? It's official?
That was like getting the cat in the box to go to the vet!
Good luck to all. Some great stuff to be won.  :icon_cool:

So that's why he looks like that!    ;D

I've just entered. It's a great forum and I have been lurking for a little too long - Hello everybody.
I have an overly ambitious idea for a reverb pedal that will probably not be done in time, but deadlines can be a good thing...

Welcome to the madness samhay. You are now going to become a diy addict. Go with it. Resistance is futile...
BTW, you have ~7 weeks to design, build and present your project. Still plenty of time for an ambitious build.
All the Best!

Thanks for the welcome.
@oldschoolanalog: I have been building stompboxes, and the like, on-and-off for a while now. Not sure if it is an addiction or more of a chronic habit, but the results are near enough the same. Anyway, you're probably right, 7 weeks aught to be plenty of time.

This is like strip tease! I think I saw a little chrome...

Thanks to the judges and gifters!!

I'll be out of town for almost all of November, so I might have to bow out, but if I can get my shiz together quick enough, I'm sure I can finish in time to loose legitimately. :)

This whole competition was meant to inspire the builders on this site AND to benefit the forum and Aron which I am personally grateful to. I am sure the other judges and gifters feel the same  ;D

Remember, there is NO deadline for submissions. Now that we know the competition is a GO, you can submit ANY TIME YOU WANT. Just be sure to post the required submission HERE FIRST.  ;)
