I need to get a couple more racks for the oven, I could cure soooo many more powdercoats! Anyway these are all the Westinghouses and Space Heaters with uncured clear coats on, I'll post another pic in 20 minutes or so when they come out.
My Shushi Box arrived.
Thanks Nathan.
Thanks Nathan.
I always build prototypes and personal builds in addition to the batch of 40, so yes I can always find time to build a couple more. But no I will not be increasing the batch number.So you *can* build extras?

I just ordered myself a King Nothing as a Happy Birthday To Me. 
wow, I really like the white... I am assuming that is a primer, but an all white pedal with black knobs would be sweet....
+1 I love high contrast pedals
I'm a big fan of white pedals black knobs/font too

Powder coating is weird, transparent/translucent powders are completely opaque until they cure, so that is the clearcoat. What you see in the two pictures are the exact same thing, the only step in between was heat. The powdercoat is basically plastic, and curing it melts it down so it bonds to the surface and to the rest of the powder to form the coat. It's neat stuff
So my buddy that let me borrow (pronounced: completely disassemble) his Effectrode Glass A for tracing requested that I powdercoat it white for him before sending it back, so I actually picked up some white powder ("Snow Storm" from Prismatic Powders) and I LOVE the look. It has sparkles mixed in, which is something I'm obviously into, but they're really fine sparkles so they just give it an overall shiny look rather than assaulting your eyes with massive amounts of glitter.
Anyway, white may make its way into finish options sometime.
Snow Storm is a great name for the color - especially given you're in Chicago

I curious how the King Nothing sounds with bass guitar.
Nothing special in my opinion. Overly bright, hard to get a really useful bass tone out of it.
Obviously not going to stop you from buying it, I like money as much as the next guy, but if you're looking at using it exclusively on bass you'll probably be disappointed.

Happily trending in my own peculiar direction.

My 7 year-old came up with a few more pedal name ideas, and there were some pretty good ones, but I have no idea what they should be for. My top picks:
The Saucy Bean
The Faraway Pirate
I think she took her success with the Robot Butterfly and is now doing The <adjective> <noun> and just seeing what sticks

Faraway Pirate sounds like either a Reverb or a Swell pedal of some kind to me...
Saucy Bean is a little tougher... makes me think of coffee with some Irish Cream for extra kick. Maybe a Overdrive/tone enhancer with some compression or clean blend?

Wow our minds went to different places. For some reason I immediately thought of a blood-covered kidney (cause you know, bean shaped).
And in that scenario, the pedal should be the absolutely most metal distortion possible
