Does anyone in Canada rehouse pedals for a reasonable price? I have an Arion Sad-1 delay which is great but it is plastic and not true bypass. I want it put in a metal box (feels like I am going to crush it right now) and converted to true bypass.

Does anyone do this? What kind of cost . . .

Contact Greg at Solid Gold Sound Labs: http://www.solidgoldfx.com/home.html

I'm sure he could fix you up.

Greg is a great guy, I have dealt with him a couple of times, and he has been very helpful.

Thanks for the info, I emailed Greg. Are there any other people doing this in Canada?

You can likely do this yourself easily enough. So long as you own a hand drill and a Unibit you're laughing!

Well, I have a hand drill, don't no what a "unibit" is, and don't really know how to solder! I just don't want to screw up the pedal somehow (which will not provoke laughter). :eek:

It probably is fairly simple but I know nothing about electronics.

The unibit is something like an auger with progressively wider diameter cutting edges. It's cone shaped.
But, if you can't solder, that's a drawback. You may as well seek help from a person who knows how.

Gunny already described it perfectly, but in case you want a picture (and place to buy one from) see here: http://www.smallbearelec.com/Detail.bok?no=375.
