What do you think about my Brown Betty design?

[Raspymcnasty]

Im pretty excited to build my brown betty. This is my first "amp in a box" of british gain type, so I made my enclosure art as such.
Let me know what you guys think regarding placement and all, any suggestions welcome.

Also does anyone know how to make custom potentiometer knobs? I kind of want little crowns as knobs.

It's a good start... you need to add the input/ouput location and the power...

Your Marjesty's may land under washers/nuts I always forget to compensate for those.

As for knobs, you could get white flat knobs of overlay a crown with waterslide on top ???

When you Scale your Layout to size of pedal , the ''S'' goes under Footswitch nut
This will give you an idea, moved the Queen a tad also to clear Basss script!

Looks great! Good points all around, I’m going to go get this printed right now

Silicone mold + casting resin. And of course you need a knob and a small crown.

Or, much cheaper and faster - 3D printing a knob.

I've been drinking a lot of Crown Royal just to get the knobs for one of my own projects...

Wow! A flavour I haven't tried yet.


Luckily, I only need a few knobs, not seven like you.

The issue with the Brown Betty is 19mm O.D is as large as you can go or they hit each other !!!

Yeah, I was thinking the caps are too big for RaspyMcnasty's needs, but now that you mention it — they do have miniature hotel-fridge/airplane sized Crown Royal!

I can't remember if they still have the proper caps, though... I doubt it.
