Anyone else wanna hop on this train? :snax:

I'd like to get as many people as we can before I approach a retailer to ask if they'll do this. :poke:

I spoke with Sean a while back about getting a bunch of the little triangular/circular knobs, but he doesn't seem to be knobbing it up much these days. Every now and again he does traditional muff knobs but otherwise :idk:
Sucks. His knobs were crazy cool.

There's another company in Fl that makes cool ones but not triangles :( Should have hopped on that train when I had the chance I guess.

Anyone have any experience with 3D printing and AutoCAD? There's a Sovtek style knob file available under the Creative Commons license (fair use/not for profit) that might be worth a look - it also is a push-on variety, so modifying it to accept a fitting screw might be palpable (mojo).

Most of the quotes I found for printing 1-3 knobs was around $30+ from different manufacturers in the USA/locally (lots of printing materials and colors available, however), but aside from bugging a city library (lots of them offer free 3D printing, also some UPS locations) and/or hogging the machine or stoking the ire of many librarians, I guess it's time to go luddite and build some molds and pour some resin?

In my preliminary exchange with them, we did not discuss price. :idk: Considering EQD told me a custom color order is 50 pedals standard and we only have less than 20 pedals spoken for, I think it was quite generous for Gear Hero HQ to be willing to place the order.

So, I'm guessing we'll be paying full retail price. :idk: On the other hand, if we can manage to convince enough people to commit to buying up the remainder of the order, I think we'd possibly have a better chance of negotiating a slight discount. I'm not counting on it though.

Yeah, that's why I thought if any dealer would be amenable to doing these, it'd be them. :thumb:

So, reports are comin' in that it's gonna be:
  • purple sparkle enclosure
  • white graphics
  • clear knobs
  • possible purple LED?
:snax:

If anyone wants to contact Sean Ryan to see if he'll do us some "special ILF version" knobs, please, go ahead. :poke:

I don't need any more pedals, but this has me really wanting to build a board with the purple Westwood, Night Wire, and Rainbow Machine. They'd pair so well with my purple Bitquest and ILFDD, and that'd be a killer setup in itself :drool: :drool: :drool: Could finish it off with a Transmisser for verb.
