Hurtin for an Urchin

Sea Urchin, finally built one for myself.  Nice organic, gurgly delay.  I like.

Not much to tell.  Raw aluminum hammond box, board mount pots, toner transfer with blue laser foil fused to it.  It didn't really photograph too well but it looks nice and shiny in person and the text is quite easy to read due to the contrast.

I suppose I tried to mimic mad prof style, which is pretty minimal.  Hope you enjoy.

Nice build mate.

Really nice and clean.

I really like my sea urchin; its my go to delay at the moment.

Really nice job!

Mind telling us how you do your transfers? They're outstanding. For me, the paper sticks way too much and the toner is always a mess.

I've never seen that foil technique before that I can remember. Looks awesome!

Thanks man.
So far I like it a good bit too.  I need to play some more to see if I really bond with it.  It's so much smaller than my echo base and the setup with 3 knobs is simple so I'm hoping it will continue to be to my liking.

Thanks!  I used the Pulsar DecalPro system.  It's tricky but you can get the hang of it with some practice.  Definitely a learning curve though.

Nice, clean build!  I rather enjoy the minimalist vibe when done right, and yours wears it well.  The transfer on the aluminum looks neat.   I just might have to try out a delay once I get through the mountain of builds I'm currently gasping for air under.

Looks great, Keefe!

I finally boxed up my Urchin.  I gotta take some pics of it.  I really like the sound of the delay.

Nice build!  I find the delay on the urchin hard to describe...its kind of, distant...almost modulated...idk, i just love it :D Blows the pants of my rebote 2.5 aka dust catcher 2.5

That finish is stunning.

Just checked out the DecalPro system. It looks very, uh, involved.  ;D
