Is it possible to get blank stomp box casings? basically i'm about to build a pedal board, i've got 2 amps so i want to build my own a/b switch and also a looper pedal so i can run my effects chain thru both amps, i would make my own casings but i don't have the neccessary tooling so i don't wanna half ass job, :( so just wondered if anyone knew if they're available and if so where? i know 'build your own clone' supply them with their kits, but they don't supply them separately :mad: thanx for any help.

Note to mods: wasn't sure if this should go in gear forum or tech forum, appologies if i got it wrong, feel free to move, thanx.

Hard to find... haven't really tracked down an individual supplier but this site shows some different companies that make them and gives you the part number.... along with some other good info.

yea dude, I've managed to find all of mine at the same shops I've bought the components to make the pedals...most electrical suppliers stock boxes that could be used as pedal casings very easily. Ribbed Cases are especially good for vero-board mounted circuits as you can cut your circuit board to size and then slide the circuit into one of the grooves in the box, making everything nice and tidy and much easier to service
