The Stumble clean boost.

Hi.
Here's my first stab at building a pedal from the site, I decided to try building a Stumble.

the enclosure template in the project page is strange, and i wanted the in/out jacks to be oriented on the sides like the box it later anyway, so i ended up just stumbling (!) along to what's in the pictures..
the build was a nice easy first build, the fun part is when you get done.. and it works... and it's just this blank box that does a thing.
now the challenge is getting the artwork the way i want it.
I'm still waiting for the clear labels to come in the mail so i'm just taping different things to it to see if i like the look for now

it's an interesting pedal.. i've got an mxr micro amp that i've been comparing it to, it's not as loud as the micro amp at max volume, but it stays cleaner... and it just has a sparkle that the micro amp doesn't.

I like the side jacks - how hard is it to get those lined up with the board?
the top ones were the easiest hoies to not mess up honestly
i just aligned the holes to be in line with the knob holes when you are looking at it face on.. i used the pure tone jacks, those are more compact than the other ones. if there's a concern of jacks loosening up, i'd just get the pot dust covers.
the neutrik ones are tricky to get right because the supplied template is not currently correct.. i ended up having to make non template adjustments to get things together.
if i were to do the pedal again i would use the off-board jacks for the send/return, instead of the pc board ones, that way the enclosure holes are not as geometry dependent.
