DIY Pedal build - Rookie Style!!

Hello freinds. Gather 'round. Join me on a journey inside the stomp. Enter the place that lives after the sole of your shoe shows mercy to the small button that has once again been asked to call upon its army of circuits, diodes, resistors and capacitors. Meet the little fellas that are towing the line for "your tone". Freinds, the tone in your head is in fact under your foot, and that is where we shall go. It is a place for royalty, and in this case, The Price of Tone. Behold, your Prince.

This is my first build, and I have been doing my homework with the help of my mentor, Ivan H. I have a big box of small parts. I will soon fit them to a less small board, and with any luck, I will have my magic.

Sit back and enjoy the show. It is likely to be a humorous one, a performance known as A Comedy of Errors!!

If you’re going to do a few of these look into a couple of greenlee punches. They make excellent holes, no burrs, or stress marks.

I've seen Ivan H post on electronics, and you are in good hands. The perfect mentor. I admire your willingness to explore all the world's of music, guitar and rock n roll Tones. So cool Ray, good luck on this journey.

Thank you! I am thinking of making 2 since I bought AT LEAST 2 of each component. We may have a "most unlucky" member giveaway!! We shall see if it works or offends the ears.
 
Here is one of the enclosures with a black base coat. I had to add a hole - guess which one! It will have 4 knobs and 2 mini toggles.

I have given my paralegal full creative license to do a custom paint job, except for requiring knob labeling. She likes arts and crafts. I anticipate something like ZVEX in Disneyland!
