i got those from smallbearelec.

I used to shop at mouser.com.. but thier inventory is too big. it gives me a headache.

smallbear has all kinds of knobs... buy a few, and you just might end up using them!

what type of pen did you use on your pedals, was it a metal marker + then clear coat ?

really cool individual pedals

hey man, thanks! actually, its a silver sharpie.

the silver sharpie comes out like wet paint. the black ones come out like marker. I used a white paint pen from a crafts store, and that didnt work out too well. it blobbed, and when you bake it, it turned yellow, or aged on me.. which can be cool, but its not what i wanted.

On this one, and most of the pedals, i used the silver sharpie. they last a long time, and they have a sharp point to them.

I would love to get the nerve to try the waterslide, but i really have no clue how to do that. Ive tried the iron-on.. and it was disastrous. i dont even want to get into that.

you may look at my pedals and think its a cool way of doing things, but its really only cause i tried the other ways, and it sucked for me.. i just need to try the other methods again..

oh, yeah, and i put clear coat over it. it didnt run at all.
