Benecol posts there, which is the probably it's most redeeming factor at this stage.

When I posted the ShortScaleGearDemos stuff there people just didn't "get it" at all.

O I C...they didn't understand that people play chords with pedals not blues scales on demos?

One of the criticisms was that we were demoing stuff that was "too common" and not stupid expensive. it's like "Hi, you're a prick. We're doing this with gear we own or have borrowed. Way to miss the point".

And people didn't get the humour because they were a bunch of sourpuss idiots.

It's an ace pedal, does plenty, a real swiss army fuzz. You're more than welcome to have a borrow sometime, if you're ever in Patchouli-town.

I post pretty much everywhere. I like that every forum has it's own flavor, and since I don't post enough to be in the 'in crowd' of any forums, I can easily just ignore the pricks.

Mike - your demos are what brought me here. Don't let the haters get you down.

All of this powder coating that is going on looks pretty great. It's suprisinglk inexpensive to boot.

It is, and you can powdercoat to pretty much any colour. I think it is probably the best way to get a reliable metallic colour on a pedal. So robust of a finish as well.

I looked into getting my bike powdercoated it was only going to cost me £60 and a turn around of two days. There was a guy on a bike forum offering it for £20 because he knew a guy who would do it in the evenings.

My boss powder coated his own bikes - I have no clue how he baked them, though, but they look beautiful.
If you think of god as a pair of pants, a spiritualist thinks he needs pants, in fact he wants pants but none of the conventional types of pants seem to fit just right, so he makes his own pants and is happy that his knees are no longer cold.-fibus
