Hi

I find very nice your stomp, i have a question: which is the material  that you make etching? how to make the etching?

Thanks a lot

I used a galvanized roofing shingle that I picked up at Home Depot (hardware store) for the face plate and etched it with ferric chloride PCB etchant. I used metal snips to cut the metal sheet to the right size and then I sanded the edges and corners. I also sanded the galvanized coating off which took some time. You can definitely tell when it's gone though. It will look uniform and really nice. I used Press n Peel Blue to transfer the artwork to the face plate. After transferring the artwork to the faceplate I masked the toner with model paint and let it dry. Then I etched the board. The hardest part is drilling the holes because the plate is pretty thin. Maybe practice on an extra piece of metal before trying it on the final product. Here is a link to some pics that show some of the process I used: http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=8416.0
