Looks fantastic!  I have Squier Modified Tele that plays great.  You must be a proud 'papa':)

Congratulations.  It's a real looker! My first guitar was a Harmony (strat copy).  This one's got a lot more character than mine did though;)

I like the term 'Box of Fix'.  Also like 'Childish Fit' and throwing things in the trash.  I think there are appropriate circumstances for all:)

That rocks!  Pedal building has boosted my DIY confidence as well.  I've been on a roll: used my DMM to determine a bad heating coil in my dryer and fixed, replaced thermocouple in the furnace (tonight in fact, heater now functioning), replaced the power steering switch on my wife's car, replaced the O2 sensor.  All within the past  month and a half!  I've never been a fixit man.  Never had the desire till now.

Thanks Selfdestrroyer.  I opened the footswitch last night and no battery.  It is a TRS cable.  It controls Channel selection and boost on/off. 
So, the schematic doesn't indicate that there is voltage but there must be. 
If the voltage doesn't return, then boost is off.  Is that how it functions?

Stupid question. But how does a passive amp foot switch LED get its power?

Another attempt.  P'n'P Blue this time.

It's the instant gratification that attracts me to the etching.  That said, I see the benefit of learning Eagle CAD.

That's fantastic Aballen!
#702
That sounds interesting Gledison.  What's it called?

Awesome, thanks Selfdestroyer. I used Chromosphere's 'address label' for toner which worked the best for me so far.  I wonder if my printer at work is not putting out enough toner.  The printer at my local Kinkos was smearing the toner as it fed through the machine.  May be time to buy my own:)

That's encouraging Selfdestroyer.

I'm stoked Jimi.  The last etch I did didn't cut all the way through the copper and I had removed the toner before I realized it (working in low light).
I bought some harbor freight carbide bits and will hopefully drill tomorrow but it will be weeks before I can populate.  Have to sell something and place an order
