Forum rules
The DIY forum is for personal projects (things that are not for sale, not in production), info sharing, peer to peer assistance. No backdoor spamming (DIY posts that are actually advertisements for your business). No clones of in-production pedals. If you have concerns or questions, feel free to PM admin. Thanks so much!
This thing has been sitting in its box for a looong time waiting for me to get up the nerve to build it. It's a Bleeplabs thingamakit noise synth. It's my first attempt at pedal building and all in all it went fairly well. And by some twisted miracle it actually works. They give you some stickers for the outside but I chose to paint it up. Wasn't sure what to do then I got inspired by Ryan and Tanya's raindrop-miniberator, zombie-berator and the ensuing discussion of raining blood. The blood splatter is also in homage to the massacre that occurred to the board after my soldering and re-soldering. I have a whole new respect for those of you that have achieved the fine art of soldering. If nothing else I guess it was good practice for my next build, whatever that will be. But, this thing is a blast....
Fuzz Face built by Scruffie that I painted & added decals to (also provided by Scruffz)
Check out that rockin' art inside the Scrufface! This thing sounds great...with bass even. Can clean up nicely with pick attack also
Oh, this is my first "pro" pedal painting. Have done some hand painted in the past. I sprayed with model car lacquer, baking in between each coat. Then clear coated, again baking in between. I should have added a few more layers of clear, but it will do for now. I learned for next time .

I user lazertran laser waterslides around thirty bucks for a pack of 10 pagers, thoguh obviously I can fit many pedals on a single sheet.
