  1. Sublimination of photos on aluminum plates - anyone on here do that? 

    I'm having trouble finding a supplier for a project

      I had some plastic faux brushed stainless steel logo badges UV printed by my semi-local guy in Portland Oregon who does effects enclosures, amp fascia plates, etc. I think he can do laser etching on aluminum too. These cost about $9 USD each, shipping included:

      A shockingly high initial tooling cost, if I remember right. They do beautiful work though.

      I had a long chat with these guys at NAMM several years ago : https://www.mpofcinci.com/

       

      IIRC sticker shock is a pretty big part of their schtick though. 😉

  4. Looking for someone who could make a small run (probably 12 at most) of approx. 6"x1.5" single sided PCBs without costing the earth. Any recommendations? Local to Bristol/Wiltshire would be nice, but not mandatory.

      Free shipping world wide. I've used them dozens of times very happily. Not the cheapest, but great quality and no language barriers, hidden costs, etc.

      Thanks Silvia, it's great to see the show from another perspective. Except for Chowny, I barely even looked at any of the other booths you featured in Part 3. You are looking for lefties, I am only really interested in unlined fretless ones, which are surprising uncommon IME.

  6. New blog entry in the NAMM series - general views: https://wp.me/p2ZbyY-Ae

      Silvia, I has a few things on exhibit at Marco Bass Guitars, Hall E, booth 4211. We were next to Marleaux, Fibenare, and Ken Smith, and right across the aisle from AC Guitars and the rest of the boutique builder's collective. We had a crazy busy booth for all of the three + days I was there, and as I was leaving on Sunday morning one of our endorsers was playing on the big outdoor Plaza Stage, rocking a bass with one of my new prototype preamps in it. For me it seems to get more intense every year, and I think a lot of that is related to more and more people knowing me by face.

      Very cool to experience the show through a first timer's eyes and ears. It would have been nice to put a face to your blog, but as usual I was pretty much just completely overwhelmed, between various demands for my time and the need to just chill out from time to time. I did manage to connect with Sibob for a couple of minutes though, at least.

      Looking forward to part 3.

      It looked like you were doing consistent business every time I walked by.
