Great looking build! Can you explain how you did the enclosure and what is going on the the solder terminals on the pots?

Thanks, the enclosure finish is simple black paint directly on aluminum and baked. I then use 0000 Steel Wool to get the distressed look. Labeling is done with «Letter Punch». Pretty simple and straitght forward.

For the pots it's just shrink wrap around the lugs to avoid any chances of contact since 4x 16mm pots is a tight fit in there.
