While selling off my old builds on FB, I often get people wanting commission builds, usually for something (rare, obscure, expensive) that they don't want to pay for. This is one of those times. I had a bloke wanting a couple of Jimilee's Megarats but in an enclosure and styled more like the original Rat.
Anyway, this is the result, 2x Megarats in 1590bb2 boxes. The desired layout means that the pcbs are only mounted by the clipping rotary switch and everything else is floating. Not how I'd do it by choice, but whatever. Leads are intentionally left a little long so I have something to work with if something goes wrong. I've also started heatshrinking exposed solder joins on pots (not just on these builds either).
Tayda powdercoat, drill, and UV print. I took a lot of time getting the white under the text properly aligned, but I think they struggle a bit with registration on the smaller fonts - ref the clipping list on the bottom panel.
Knobs will be the black/silver boss style.
One is going to Scotland, the other just up the road from me. The client has a fair bit of experience with some other vector design app (I use Illustrator) and I learnt a lot doing these two.
Thanks Jimi for letting me do this and supplying the board docs.
