I've done a lot of research on etching over the last several months. Here's a few sites with different methods.

The Press N Peel wet works the best as far as transfers go.
Danny over on TB told me to use the following which worked like a fucking charm!
200-1000 grit sand paper on the enclosure. I used 200 then, 600, then 800. Wet sand that bitch. I also used 00 steel wool to take off any burrs. Then I used VM&P Naptha (it's with the paint thinners) to remove any dirt or grit. Then comes the ironing from the links.
It's actually really fucking easy. I love it!

It's a modded deep blue delay with the extra control being a master volume.
Delay time is around 400ms IIRC

Can't say I have any RMC caps but I did just score an awesome haul of vintage fender "circle d" caps....sourced from the wife of a 60's era fender tech and used in teles, strats, and amps of that era :

Paid out the arse for them but I've got a few cool projects planned

Re: Let's see your finished DIY projects!
Needed a clean booster with a bit more flair and rounder sound than my LPB, also something a little more on my color scheme, so I put this together tonight. Terminal strip SHO clone. I kept trading off the other clones I made. This one is here to stay!
