29th of August is my Birthday.... just sayin!
hmm.... I love the look of my Kick Tags but I had to stop using them as they fell apart constantly during gigs. This would surely clear up my issue. Maybe I'll get lucky and only have to buy the black skeleton part as I already own all the tiles. I wouldn't want to start all over again thats for sure, too much of an investment already. Not trying to say anything bad, as Sukh and I had this conversation at the time I received them, and I have never spoken out about this on the forum or anywhere, as this was my issue and I am not the kinda guy to trash people. But if the new system works it would make me want to try them again. Ss much as I love the glow in the dark look, I had to go back to using a label maker as I couldn't have the Kicktags fall apart during a show anymore as it was too distracting.
I have a question, does the magnets scratch the finish?
Question: how come not a single vertical block for the F1 and F2 switches? Seems like those would still move (and, in fact, those are often the ones that move the most for me due to foot movement). Otherwise they look great. I also hope I can just buy the surrounds and blank spacers, though I'd probably also buy a few more labels now that I've settled into mine a bit.
Hey mate,
honestly? I made a 1-piece prototype design for the top 2 F-Switches (you can't do all 3, as they're on different tiers) and I hated the look of it. It looked clunky, as there's a large dead space between the two. The other issue then is that, even with a uni-surround for those two, the bottom one is still a single label, which could still move...
The next question then (I've been through this entire thought process, as you can probably tell!) is to make a single uni-surround that covers the ENTIRE row, including the F-Switch. The problem with that is that I'm then forcing people to buy F-Switch labels (not everyone wants them) and you would STILL have a single label for the top F-Switch, which is not part of a row of switches.
So.... I made the new version of the F-Switch Surrounds slightly wider so they can't move as much, as they are closer to the Uni-Surround. My advice though, once you have your F-switches set up as you want, is to put a tiny piece of double sided tape on the back of the surround to stop any movement whatsoever. I've been doing it for ages, and it works perfectly.

Good work. I hate that I just bought the old one, I would have waited had I known. If cost allows, I will update to the new ones and re-use the labels I have. How about a discount for those of us that just bought the old ones!?!![]()
