Looks really nice! Where did you get the knobs from?

Well, here's mine. I did learn that slanting the board back so the nuts fit on the toggle switches causes a major problem with the pots. I think they don't look too bad counter sunk as long as they're all done that was. I have some either caps for the toggles that should enhance the look.

I assumed the wire origami was a must, since it seemed to be a trend, so I tried my hand at it.

You missing a ground on the output, or is this a test?

I don't normally ground the output. It's grounded from the input via the enclosure.

Got mine done this past weekend. I really like this thing!  You get plenty of over-the-top phasing if that's what you're after, but you can also make it a more subtle effect that sits really nice in the background.  Still learning all the knobs & switches, tho...

Found this, hope it helps.

Thanks, yeah, I found that too - it really does help.  My issue is with posting a simple pic  ;D

Jimi got me started on this addiction when he sold me a "Dorothy Red Sparkle Shoes" phaser.  I've been addicted to red sparkle ever since.

Man, that's a still my favorite finish on a phaser. I don't know which board is in there, but you can't beat it. There's no place like phasers.....

Mine is reporting as delivered by USPS but never showed. Hope it gets sorted...

Does anyone know where I can get knobs similar to the ones on Blackout Effector's Fix'd Fuzz? I'm almost done with mine and I'd like it to look authentic.
