Here's a photo of a couple do-it-yourselfer's I made recently. One is based on BYOC's Ross compressor clone, though I bought only the PCB from them and bought the rest of the components directly from various electronics and parts suppliers. I mentioned this kit previously in THIS POST (http://www.thefret.net/showthread.php?t=3615), but the pedal has been decaled now, so you can see the finished product. I call this one the "E-Z Squeezy".

The other one is just a simple A-B switch, with the added feature of two LED's to show which channel is active. The LED's can be run by battery or 9V AC adapter, though it doesn't require any power for the switch itself to work. I used a schematic I found on the web to build it--very simple! This is a really handy little piece of hardware, and can be used for switching a guitar between two different amps, or two different guitars into the same amp, among other uses. I named this one the "Swap Meet".

I have the instructions and bills of materials for both pedals, if anyone wants them....
