i may aswell make use of this thread,

ok i am now the proud owner of Nick a tron's Trap molds, absolute amazing Nick!
so i thought id make a pedal for it,
hopefully if i mold each peice i shall be able to cast the whole thing in resin so, both trap and pedal are resin.

im using stefans plans, heres my progress so far,





the foot pedal, i engraved, not screen acurate but looks better than nothing.

[nick-a-tron]

blimey Carl that's looking great! love that engraved plate

i really need to get my arse in gear and make a pedal for my trap.

Cheers Nick,

your be able to make 1 no problem, the most time consumming parts were making the side boxes, i carved them from an old fence post.

anyway more progress.








still need fixtures and fittings, and waiting on a sub connector from AJ, possibly the only thing not able to scratch build without it looking rubbish.

[nick-a-tron]

fantastic! really like how the side boxes came out.

[enchanted unicorn]

you have a woody.

Epic carving skills, Carl. Where were you when I was trying to build a Proton Pack back when I was in Secondary School?

[chibigear]

Good looking trap pedal man! I like how the side boxes came out. Still I wonder why you made them from scrap, as they are readily available from electrical stores? Still, great work on that!!

Looks great Carl !!

He's UK based, so the correct sized ones may not be as readily available.

Cheers for the comments guys!

yer apart from not being able to get the right size, im 1 of those,, who would rather make do than spend out on extras

i shall update when i get fixtures, probably screwfix, great store.

I understand that. I was astonished to find out the correct sized boxes on my local electrical outlet. I kind of thought that if I can find something here in Finland, they should be available elsewhere too.. Still, I should know better than to presume things. And kudos to you for making them from scrap... All the better..

LOL ,yer can ya tell i come from Great Yarmouth

sorry for late reply i completly forgot to update. DOH!

heres the finnished pedal, i found a better looking Relay, the only thing i have bought for this was the D SUB, from AJ,



i normally weather everthing, i gave it another coat of paint, and im deciding to keep this with the 'NEW' look

[nick-a-tron]

looks great Carl! the fact you scratch built it too really adds to its greatness

i may have another small freebie to send you this week. ill shoot you a PM when i get them in.

[UltimateGBfan]

Amazing work.

[sietsema02]

Looks good man there is to little about the trap pedal out there.

[UK Ghostbuster 89]

Thanks Everyone for the comments, nice to know

sietsema02. yep too true, thankfully AJ stocks most things needed for put together a pedal, though scratch building it was a tad hard, i owe alot to Stefans plans.

Thanks Nick, if you approve of the standard it must be good lol. Cheers about the freebie, though you dont have to.
