Hello, all. My name is Wes, and I'm new here. I just finished my first actual pedal this month, but I haven't had a chance to write up a build report. I haven't posted any questions yet because there's already so much information available here. You have all been so helpful, so thank you!

Here's a question about build reports:
Before putting together the aforementioned pedal, I built an A-B switch box, a testing rig, and a power converter (12V to 9V); all of which were helpful learning experiences before building the effect pedal. Should I create a new post for each of these four devices, or should I group them into one big post to show the journey I took?

This looks great! I really like the way you did the lines below the knobs. I'm hoping to learn to etch like this one day.

First time i saw it was on the Deep purple N.3 cover!

Garden of Earthly delights is a fantastic painting and WILL end up on a pedal I do at some point.

Someone needs to do this! You could make a fuzz pedal and call it "Deep Purple Haze."

Those are some sweet builds! I'd love to see a video of the LEDs on the second pedal in action.

The artwork on the first pedal reminds me of this crazy painting by Hieronymus Bosch called The Garden of Earthly Delights (http://goo.gl/HcXg9g). I've always liked this painting, mainly because it features the character on the label of Tilburg's Dutch Brown Ale - one of my favorites. Cheers!

That's a pretty sweet testing rig. I really need to build one for myself.

For some reason I had to figure out what that image was. It's Mr. Spray. Nice one!

Is there something special about this Blu-Tack, or can I just use normal poster putty? Here's what I found available nearby: Scotch Removable Mounting Putty (http://tgt.biz/1dgN7c3).

Just finished placing my order. Thanks for posting, wretched!

This "pedal" (Home Made Electro-Mechanical Tremolo) is super-cool. I'm just getting into this hobby, so it's been really neat to see how creative people are. Thanks for the link!
