Skeptical Buffer Build

[ITG6]

Took forever to complete this but after multiple parts orders, mis-drilled holes, and LED struggles I finally got this one wrapped up. First mistake was drilling the holes for the switches too high. Instead of using a different enclosure I made a 3D printed plate with transparent letters to cover the mistake holes and backlit them with LED's. In the end I think its pretty cool and may consider making more mistake holes to play with LED's in future builds.

i love the LED backlighting! i think i'm going to have to put the work in to design faceplates like that, i have a printer too and that is a great way to dress up an aluminum enclosure.

That faceplate looks excellent!

How are you feeling about the pedal itself? I don't really trust what a lot of people say about the original pedal because I suspect paying such a high price for it might affect their judgment.

The backlit labels are a great idea! Nicely done.

Making the plate in Tinkercad wasn't too bad.

That faceplate looks excellent!

Thank you. Its one of those pedals that you don't notice as much until you play with it on for a bit and then turn it off.
