Very cool looking! I love how art work looks like on orange enclosures :)

Very good, very tasty looking stuff! Is it color lazer decals / water slide or some other technique?

Cheers

It's a strange, barely controllable tremolo with an oscillator.  Here is the link to the board: http://musicpcb.com/pcbs/gristleizer/ (http://musicpcb.com/pcbs/gristleizer/)

My only disappointment is that the knob & switch labels looked a lot easier to read in Inkscape on a white background.

The ZPSDX is a laser waterslide decal, black only.  The Gristlizer is a color laser printed on a white vinyl label.  I generally use blem enclosures, so I need vinyl labels for the dark-colored boxes.  Both have several coats of clear lacquer, I use a clear with sparkle for the 2nd coat.

They're both pretty tight inside.

Thanks dude! And they're not pretty tight, they are extremely tight!!! Very nice man, like those a lot! Do me a favor, and enter one of these in the comp. Would make it real easy for me where to direct my vote....

Beautiful builds.  Great artwork on the outside and nice job fitting everything in the insides.
