I agree... about the Hi/Lo versus High/Low Range.

I received my board this week and I'm sourcing parts...
I know the BOM recommends a 3P4T rotary switch, but shouldn't it be 4P3T switch?
Otherwise you have a (4th) position that can be rotated to that does nothing...

Maybe Brian can chime in here...

BTW: Here's the artwork I'm working on for mine... Hope you like it and hopefully no one is too offended by the clone-ish style...

It looks like either the pcb is wrong or the artwork is wrong, but the HI/LO and Range switches are reversed...

Great looking build.

Yes. Definitely the best story ever. You need one more label across the middle that says" This is not a bomb detonator!"

1. Bake-on decal paper: http://www.papilio.com/laser%20bake%20on%20water%20slide%20decal%20paper.html

It comes in White and Clear. It can be a little finicky going through some laser printers. Just follow the instructions. Obviously the centaur was done with clear. The clear all but dissappears on any kind of colored enclosure. I recently used white for an Uproar/Riot build. See attached artwork below. I'll be posting actual photos in a separate thread. It's expensive, but I think it's so worth the price considering durability, ease of use, and the time it saves over other artwork methods.



2. Yes the enclosure is from Pedal Enclosures. It's one of their YY enclosures. They are custom made by them and they aren't available anywhere else. They are extremely heavy (durable) compared to standard Hammond type enclosures with almost TRIPLE the wall thickness. But you pay for that. Just the plain unfinished version is $15.49. I have only one problem with the enclosure. Because the walls are so thick you can't use any kind of lock washers with standard jacks and pots. Other than that I chose it because it most similar to the original centaur enclosure. http://www.pedalenclosures.com/Products/tabid/69/c/YY-enclosures/CategoryID/4/Default.aspx

Thanks for the comments. No I did not clear coat afterwards. The bake-on stuff is extremely rugged. I've taken a screw driver and lightly scratched across it and it doesn't come off.

Hope you like my version of the Sunking. Thanks Brian for providing these great boards.
I missed one single solder pin that had me scratching my head for awhile, but once I discovered it all was good. (You can see it in the close up of the underside of the board Pin 3 of IC3) Great pedal and board.
Nice rich clean boost and the overdrive is very responsive. I think the owner of this pedal is going to be very happy indeed.

And in case you're wondering the artwork is Bake-On decal paper.

Regards,

Steve
