Who else is now wondering/hoping, "does that actually work?"

You've never tried speaking into a fan before? It works

My first build was actually two pedals at the same time... A BYOC Confidence booster in a 1590a, and a BYOC 250+ in a 1590b, both with etched enclosures.

Well that's a tough act to follow. Those look awesome, hylandren.

This was my first one (that wasn't an A/B/Y switcher). One Knob Fat Fuzz that wasn't all that fat because I used the wrong input cap value (used 10n instead of 100n), but it actually sounds pretty decent.

Wow, the trail off that rocket looks awesome. Is that painted?

I carefully dremeled it out and then painted it with Red Duplicolor Metal cast. The real trick was getting the LED cocked just right so the light hit the red paint, instead of just going straight up into the air. An LED with a narrow viewing angle was the key.
This image shows it better.

It looks super cool, jewel like. Really awesome.
