Title: Recent Adventures in Circuit Bending and Enclosure Art
Post by: Dminner on February 07, 2017, 06:04:17 PM
Still not building 100%...still just modding and bending...

BUT, I have also been exploring different finishing techniques, making knobs some of my own knobs, having fun, and learning.  Just thought I would share my experiments :)

these look amazing... i'd love to hear your techniques for "weathering" that top pedal.

Sure:

For Enclosure metal:
1) a sponge and super black gun stock dye.

For the metal plates:
1) toner transfer
2) green and black paint, don't shake (keep it watered down), spay on a paper plate and pick some up with a wadded up Kleenex and dab it on.  For splatters, pick up with a tooth brush and flick it on.
3) When satisfied, clear coat.

very cool stuff. I especially like the Fuzzscapes' colour fade combined with the splattery paintjob.

Looks killer!

Is that a red footswitch cover on the Aphelion for "crush"?

That is the only one I cant share :(   It is a clone of seppuku's digital water and I promised someone I wouldn't make the mods public.  BUT, all other pedals were my own mods threw experimentation and I am I am happy to share info on them!

Thanks, they are modded PDS1700s.

I really want a bent modcore.  The seppuku bent modcores are really neat and weird sounding.  I haven't figured it out yet though...and killed my mod core trying haha.  The good thing is there are cheap enough that its no big deal.
