Here's some of the pedals I've built over the last month. All are on Tonepad PCBs (excellent quality, btw).

Those pedals were my first try at using full-face decals (a single decal covering the whole front of the pedal). Previously I had used a separate decal for each label, which left ugly visible borders around them. While the new method works better, I screwed up with these pedals by drilling holes first and then trying to design the decal. As a result, some of the knobs cover up the labels, and other labels are misaligned with their respective controls.

 

After that mistake I revised my decal-making process. Now I first design the decal (which also includes a drilling template), then drill the holes and finally apply the decal. The results are much better, as the two fuzzes below show.

I also plan to refinish the first three pedals sometime in the future.
