+ Looks like an amp ...
with knobs and pilot light ....
but the knobs are really pushpins:
and it's really a bulletin board:
and the pilot light is a special pushpin that lights up when you use it!
Here's what it's made out of:
The knobs are of clear resin, cast in an RTV mold (with a pushpin in the middle), then painted black with a silver dot in the middle, and wiped with white to reveal the debossed numbers.
This was insanely fun to make!
Best,
Bob K
