Excellent. What paint did you use for the glow in the dark? I tried it once before and the results weren't nearly as good.

Awesome! Now you need a glow in the dark knobby, or one of them LED lit ones.

That is one clean build.  Nice subtle colors and super tidy guts.

I saw that. I'm asking what the fluorescent pigment you used was, because my previous attempts with glow-in-the-dark paint didn't work well at all. If you don't mind sharing, that is.

It's a simple 1590A enclosure, I ordered from Banzai Music. Sand blasted (?) [sorry, I don't know in english] side and polished top with sandpaper (400).

That's fantastic! I'm impressed that you managed to keep the envirotex from spilling out of the etch.
