First Pedals! (donut, florist, greenBean/slowLoris)

[diegoyl]

I got into pedals this summer and made a Donut (pink), Florist (blue), and a combined GreenBean/SlowLoris (yellow). I based my graphics off of loteria cards and took more freedom with the Dist/OD, adding some avatar references. Also, i just wanna thank this community because you guys answered a lot of my questions and helped me exceed my expectations of how these would turn out. thank you!!



I think they turned out great for being my first pedals and I only had one minor drilling error! Only complaint is that GreenBean needs the DRIVE pot to be below 10% or else it is way too much, but that might be because of the mods i made in order to exclude the LOW pot.

I also made a tiny pedalboard out of some wood i had:


my favorite design (favorite sounding was florist):


and here's some wiring:


everything baaaarely fit on this one:



edit: i also wanna point out the graphics are just on photo paper from walgreens (coated with armor-all) glued onto the enclosure with elmers and a bit of superglue, it seems to be holding up well enough, but also i've only had them for about a month. I think this is a great option if your trying to minimize costs. I followed this video.

Those look somewhere around 10x better than my first 3 pedals.

thank you! i took some studio classes last semester so i was used this as an opportunity to keep practicing photography and also photoshop (the main reason i did diy pedals was so i could make the graphics lol)

I'm with ya, that Cactus Juice looks just incredible. Nice work all around, I also dig the DIY pedalboard, I've thrown together a few too.

Excellent, what a start, now you're hooked! Fab looks and execution, looking forward to seeing more!

"My first builds," he says.  Bloody hell.

Just a note, you might want to check the taper on that drive pot if it's maxing out too early.

awesome stuff. The graphics are top notch and the presentation/photography is killing it
