Thanks to @PedalBuilder for sharing the HURTS schematic here. I'm trying it on vero (also, thanks to dirtboxlayouts), with this old crusty GE transistor from Hitachi (hFe 51).
What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

I would be very curious to know how much metal printing at JLC for such a part would cost. I always found Hammond to be stupidly expensive for what they were, and I'd be very interested in more convenient shapes like yours.

You are a much more patient man than I.

Womp. Looks like their limitations for metal are 10x10x10cm... too long. A B enclosure is also too large (~11cm long).

Womp indeed

I learned Maya back in 2004, and it's really all I'm familiar with. and NURBS modelling is extremely obtuse in that program. I can hack some things to look the way I want, and then I export it all as poly OBJs, and Cura can handle it for printing. But I think I need SolidWorks to actually get a handle on how to make engineering-ready projects.

What program did you design it in? I could probably take whatever file you have and convert it to a STEP if you wanted to try submitting for a CNC milling quote. I've only had a couple parts milled by JLC but they were reasonably priced and did a good job.If it means I have to learn SolidWorks or some other actual CAD program

Thanks for the offer. It is 100% polys from Maya (my previous comment about NURBS seems deceptive in hindsight), but I'll send it your way if you think it might work.

I mean even if you just have an STL I should be able to convert it, but sure shoot over whatever you've got and I can take a look.

Well, @vigilante398 tried the file I sent over at JLC CNC, and it's ...very pricey, like $92 for one, $369 for five, and that's all pending an engineer review, which would add more, most likely.

haha... Chameleon flip would be wild.... I'm torn on a possible gold top looking finish or bass boat glitter in light pink...

bass boat glitter pink 100%. Put a bass decal on the back of the headstock.
Lounge floor not workbench but ripped pedal board to bits at start of summer and just got around to rebuilding it. The mc6 I’ve had for 3-4 months now and not used. Which is daft.
This eve was the first stage of rebuilding … wires to be added
Apologise for only having two pedals I built myself on it … (if it helps I fixed the ground error on the PF101 rather than to have to go back to oz, and I had a look inside the colourbox, broke and fixed it…)

How do you like that Colour Box? And the low pass filter? I have always wanted the Moogerfooger. Cool board!

I remember seeing a guy in a bar band playing a 70's Les Paul Deluxe in blue glitter (this was back in the 80's) and thinking it was one of the coolest Paul's I'd ever seen. The cream binding didn't really jive, nor did the pickup mounts for the mini buckers but it still rawked.
