Big Muff Mod

Just wanted to post what I've done with my NYC Big Muff pedal. The original case was huge, and the board inside was really tiny. I am an effects whore, so I wanted to make more room on my board so that I could cram even more stuff on there. :D
After some finagling and a little bit of creative thinking, I was able to fit the board into a much smaller box! I used a cheapo box from radio shack (what? it was the right height!) and had a friend of mine help me out with the drilling and soldering since I am not so hot at it. Replaced the 1/8" dc power jack with one with a standard boss jack from small bear electronics, and stuck in a super bright blue LED for good measure. I think the paint job came out pretty good, makes it look home-made. :D
 
Nice.

I did a russian big muff for Higgie. Rehouse to smaller enclosure, Boss 9V mod + lots of mods to the circuit to get a better tone, and better bass response. He's really happy with it. So was I :)

Infact you can see it in this photo in between the Mutron and Angler:
