Title: My First Madbean Build: Rock'n a Box (a.k.a The Krankosaurus)
Post by: FuzzMonkey on December 14, 2010, 06:13:20 AM
Greetings All,

I'd thought I'd share with you some images of my first Madbean build, what I call the Rock'n a Box:

Just like the original but I've added the LEDs (therefore the wiring of the switches etc differs from the original also) and I had to sub C8 and C9 with 2n2 capacitors as I couldn't source any 2n capacitors. I also created a couple of PCBs for the switches to try and keep the wiring a little tidier. Things were a little tight inside but a great sounding pedal and highly recommended build! Thanks Brian.

Any comments welcome.

~ FM.

Very cool. How did you do your graphic?
Peace. J.J.B.

OMG, this is great! I have to admit, I'm a Spongebob fan. My four year old loves this show, so I think I must have seen (or heard) every episode two or three times.

Very nicely done with the graphic and the guts. I'm curious about the decal, too. It seems too high quality for inkjet...the colors are vibrant.

Thank you for the kind words!  :-[

I found these online on while search for options to label my builds:

I just used my Inkjet printer set to the best printing settings and a spray of clear lacquer to seal and protect and it was job done!
