On the printer, go into preferences and do custom settings. Make all the colors bold and change to the highest quality output format. I upped the dark hues. Had to fool until i got the best one, but it worked!

I used dark tshirt inkjet transfers from Michaels. 3 Pack for around 6 Bucks (after the standard 40% coupon!). I'm still applying the clearcoat, which is krylon triple thick. I'm pleased though. A few lessons I learned;

1. Don't move the iron while applying pressure. Im so used to pushing it around with press n peel for etching that I did it while transferring and caused little creases.

2. Cut design out with an xacto, not scissors (duh).

3. Keep your effing cats away

To finally box the ZPSDX. I'm a bit nervous about the drilling, even with the template. Do you guys have any suggestions to make sure this goes smoothly? Also, has anyone done this with regular jacks in a bb?  Or should I just get shielded jacks

This is for a tube screamer I haven't boxed yet. It is my first iron transfer- came out ok after the clearcoat. I wish someone would have told me NOT to move the iron when applying pressure. Oh wel!

I splits guitar cable and attached the split end to a spdt. Worked great!

Its the keeley comp from tagboard in a regular BB case. I had the light blue case laying around for a while and I didn't know what to do with it, so I went with an old art class motto- when in doubt, splatter! Plus, the guy from the anatomy book was just asking to be on a pedal.

Hey guys-


My dad gave me a really awesome old Yamaha Thirty 112. It sounds fantastic and the reverb on it rules. It has a 1/4 input in the back for the distortion channel footswitch. How would I go about building this?
