lemme address some things:

first of all, i actually told my client (my long-time friend James) that I might not be able to build the order switchers and stuff and that I'd need to do some asking around.
secondly, yeah, I've built 4 pedals for myself before. A BYOC Kit, an A/B switcher, a Red Llama O/D and an RF Drive pedal. I've also modded a BOSS SD-1 and a DS-1 and multiple TS-9s.
I'm also about to build a tremolo for my first client Paul (who's actually ordered and paid already), and I'm getting ready to build an 808 clone for my second client Jerry.

James's pedal is like a fuzzy (don't mind the pun) idea for the future, like a few months in the future. Nothing is concrete yet anyways, and I would've asked about this for possible future builds.

Mike and Aen, thanks for the help.
Isaac and Noirie, thanks for the support
Perl, I know I can be an annoying douchebag sometimes, and yes, I am 15, and I really am sorry that I bother you enough to make you angry about it. I sincerely apologize.

As for that link Tim posted, I never noticed it. Thanks dude! That solved my problems :wink:

I also want to add that I don't build pedals just to make money. I love electronics, and I want to study Electrical Engineering in university. I LOVE building pedals and working with electronics, and I build and sell pedals because it's my passion. The money I make is just a bonus that I can put towards actually making music, which is my second love in life :)

Thanks everyone! For the future, I'm trying to post here less and stay off people's nerves, maybe you don't want me to stick around but I like it here enough to put up with this shit. It's definitely worth it to be part of a community as awesome as Shortscale.

Don't take money before you have completed product (or anything more than a deposit to cover parts at any rate).

That is awful business practice.
