Title: Wood smoothie
Post by: icecycle66 on January 20, 2013, 01:22:17 AM
I reboxed the mini-smoothie I built a month or so ago.

Mahogany enclosure, tung oil finish.
Maple and glass control knob.
Fully shielded to keep all the mojo where it's supposed to be.

No, I'm no woodworker.

I found a box builder in Arizona that made it for me. It had to be a custom size to fit all the stuff and still be sturdy enough to be a stomp box. (http://www.azwoodman.com/)

I did have to finish it and bore all the holes.

It was a bit difficult to bore the in/out and power jacks with just a dremel tool.

next time cut a oversized square hole then do all the plate work on colored plexi or plate aluminum, then drill holes in the corners and attach to the box   ;D

This is what pedals looked like in the 19th century.  Soo cool!
