Best way to combine two PCB builds in a single enclosure?

Aaaaand down the rabbit hole I go...

I'm planning out a possible build that involves combining two PCB buildouts in a single enclosure. I'd like to fit two 125B-sized PCB builds in a single 1590XX box with one DC jack and one set of input-output jacks. In this case, it'll be two overdrives (current plan is combining a Kliche Mini and a Mayahana). Along the way, I'd like to wire in a toggle switch between them to switch the signal order (left > right or right > left). By any chance, has anyone in this group mapped this out? If so, can you let me in on a good way to wire this up? Any info helps. THANKS

Here ya go. Whatever pcb is in the S2 & R2 on the order switcher will be first in the circuit when the switch is pointing up.

Very cool! Thanks for that. Guessing I'd have to run two wires for each pole of the DC jack to power both PCBs and ground the input and output jacks on the adjacent PCB. Sounds right?

Yes, or.
