I made myself some funky triggers. I documented & made a basic (how to) along the way. This might be helpful to someone here.

cool idea - thx for sharing 
OOI, what did you make the bases from, I see a barcode... Also, what's the sensitivity like? Can it handle ghosts OK, or do you have to give it a far whack to trigger?

They work surprising well. For $25 each can't get much better..

I gather from this, that the expensive storebought triggers aren't velocity sensitive? I always thought they were CV or something.

Oh they are velocity sensitive.. So are the ones i make.. The piezo reacts to velocity changes. All triggers i know of are based around the design i used.
