Thanks to Haberdasher for the etched board.  I am really enjoying these small builds.

That's either a huge knob, or a small box... missus.

Super neat sir! Impressive!

This is super neat inside and outside! Is the enclosure laser etched?

The laser etching looks amazing on the copper vein!  I like the black stomp washer too.

Shogun is one of by favorite books so this pedal is full of win.

Thanks Keefe.

Yeah, the white washer looked way out of place on this one.

So where/how are you getting your laser etching done?

I do the layouts in Adobe Illustrator and then I etch them when I can get access to the laser engraver at work.

I know that Grind Customs has found a local trophy shop that does it for him for a few dollars an enclosure.
