Nah it was the decal paper that went wrong. You have to clearcoat it after printing it and it fell on one of my other cases and went all red.

I'm using my last sheet of sticker paper on it tomorrow, to be honest the paint needed longer to dry also.

Doh, not cool. Hopefully it didn't fuck up the red pedal too badly..

I just went and checked on Doog's case and it was good to go so I applied the sticker decal I printed earlier and clearcoated it. May be able to build the pedal tomorrow night.

Gavin's will be clearcoated first thing as waterslides need a night to dry.

Speaking of Red Pedal, she is decal'd (and now clearcoated and curing).

And Doog's pedal is DONE. Are you OK with Mustang knobs mate or do you want black pointers? Also available are Boss style (the ones with the metal middles) or white mustang ones.

It sounds wicked on bass and the Gain boost can go from dirty to FUCKING HELL WHAT ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH IS HAPPENING

Mike, you must stop making me want new pedals from you. The sterling pound is not as weak as it once was.

Great work, as usual.

Arg. Can't view until I get home and behind a pic-friendly firewall. Am highly excitementative to see! Since you've let the white-stang-knob cat out of the bag... if you have some spares, would you mind posting a couple pix of the case with white stangs vs. boss knobs? I was wondering about using those exact knobs a while back, and a pic or two will lay the matter to rest. Thanks!

Yeah I'll take some snaparoonies of various knobs that I have after the clearcoat has dried on it.

This, your Small Clone, Gavin's and Doog's pedals all look unbelievably good - really pro.
Should really boost your client base once on the website - at least I hope so mate :)

Doog, Haze, your pedals were posted this lunchtime.

Gavin/Filtercap, yours will be finished over the weekend.
