Yep I use a hand drill and a few uni-bits to drill my enclosures. I use different colored highlighters to mark and keep track of the different hole sizes. I used to drill a couple boxes at a time but with the NostalgiTone series it’s like 3 pedals in one so marking the boxes makes drilling go smoother. I’ll typically drill all the same size holes at a time and then move on to the next size. I leave jack and footswitch holes for last.

I use spray paint from the local hardware store. If I were building pedals for resale I’d go with professionally painted boxes but since they are for me that’s good enough. I need to step up my game on the graphics but it’s great Barry provides some with this series.

Looking forward to finishing these and for me that’s just part of the DIY journey. I’ve never been much of a fuzz user and always stuck with building overdrive and distortion pedals but that changed after playing with the Gypsy and Luna fuzzes. I built a OKF for the fun of it and I simply love it. Now I’ve got several fuzzes on my build list.
