I usually epoxy them in place but for this one I used
an industrial double sided tape. It's not going anywhere. ;)

Well this is a funny story. I was doing the toner transfer in preparation of the etching of this enclosure when a house fly landed in the 1590B. 'I'll squash that little sucker' I thought to myself as I brought down the iron hard! So I continued ironing the enclosure, prepped it and stuck it in the FeCl. Later when I cleaned off the excess toner to reveal the etch, I noticed this (see photos below), the little sucker had left his imprint on the box - 'I must have squashed that sucker pretty hard' I thought to myself. But no, as I washed the box, I noticed a bedraggled house fly emerge from the acid bath, shake off his wings and fix me with a steely stare. He seemed bigger, muscles more toned. He looked me straight in my compound eye and said 'fuck you frequencycentral!' as he flew off into the kitchen and landed on my dinner. To survive all that, he must have been a superfly.... :whateva:

I just finished my first pedal today. Well actually I still need to put in an led but it worked the first time I turned it on so I'm happy. I took it to band practice and played with it and it sounds super awesome.
