I'm not sure what Reg uses, but I'm a big fan of Inkscape for vector graphic work. Free and powerful. Used it recently to design a bunch of dials for amp faceplate.
Keen to try inkscape. Which company do you use to make the plate?

“Claptown boost” see what I did there?
Claptown.....
Was that Portsmouth in the early 19th century?
The Clap was quite a popular band iirc
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

I designed the dials for PaulWD. Not sure if he's had them manufactured yet. Happy to help with inkscape if needed. TBH, you appear to be a much cleverer bugger than me!

And it’s pretty much complete, the case didn’t turn out perfect but I’ve learnt a couple of things along the way so I’m sure my next ones will be better. Transistor harvested out of an old car radio again, it sounds pretty amazing in this pedal if I’m honest!
Might even keep this one!

If you can fit any boost, OD or fuzz into one of these, I'll buy it.

Well if someone can convert the image to an svg design file I can engrave it on a plate for you.

Would it be appropriate to skip from #002 to #007?
Takes me about 2 weeks to make one at this stage so it would be around 3 months to get #007 on current trajectory. And if you want a pic of the royals im sure it can be arranged, would you want their crown
Jewels in the pic too?

yes, you could just skip to 007 then back again and wait for JB's order of 069
