Are we limited to a single entry?

No, you are not. Enter as many times as you like.

Hey Vigilante, what happened to your post?
Yes, jumpers are perfectly acceptable. Neatness is only a minor consideration; do what you need to do to make it sound good.

I deleted it because I found where it was already answered in your first post

New question though: what about sharing pads between components? Can I stick two leads in one hole?

Can I stick two leads in one hole?

I get this question a lot, but not about pedals.

Yes, but never 3

Yes. Or mount some parts on the backside if that's easier. My intent was to not over-constrain you guys. You can glue on extra parts, add jumpers, put parts between any two pads, etc. Just don't try to build a Boss DF-2 Feedbacker on a Muffin board and you'll be fine.

Here's an example of some mods that are perfectly acceptable. I put those resistors on the back side because there are other parts on the front side using the same pads. Yes, I'm going to clean the board.

Anytime one of questions is answered I will proceed to come up with a stupider one:

Are we allowed to tack SMD parts to the bottom? It feels like cheating, is it cheating?

 

[Chuck D. Bones]

Go for it. Curious to see what you conjure up.

Alright, super general question so I can keep my specific idea a surprise:

Does the finished circuit need to fit in an enclosure?

 

[Chuck D. Bones]

Yes. What the Hell are you building? An actual Marshall amp in a box? Whatever it is, and I think I speak for everyone here, we can't wait to see it.

 

[vigilante398]

Alright, final stupid question then I promise I'll leave you alone

Am I allowed to stack another PCB on top?

Little daughter boards like the ones on the PedalPCB Utility page, yes. Complete pedal boards, no. Vero or perf, no.

Either I'm in the presence of genius or I'm being punk'd. Or both.

I just ran to the bathroom....looked in the mirror and said...you're out of your league Donnie.

 

[Mentaltossflycoon]

I just hot glued a muffin board to the side of my microwave. Did I win??

Excellent, no further questions your honor

All I have to do now is patiently await the arrival of my Muffin board (ordered today) and I can get going on my microwave new pedal.
