Just thought I would ask for some fun circuits to squeeze into a 1590LB? I have quite a few that are pre-drilled for in_out_pwr. I do have room to add another jack or button in the side and a pot. So far I have done a few buffers, a bazz circuit and a blend circuit. I am open to suggestions. Here are a few pics for reference.

Not sure what they still have in stock but DelykPCB.com makes a handful of 1590LB stuff. I have a few, but only built one so far since I fell down the UV printing rabbit hole and can’t get the LBs uv printed

A voltage doubler.
Not my box of choice for certain but I have them so I might as well try some stuff. Stacked boards haven't even appeared on my radar, lol.

Check out Henretta Engineering for some inspiration. Or scoop up one of his little knobless boxes. I have the Purple Octopus. It’s a green ringer in a 1590lb.
If I ever have an extra few $$$ kickin around. I may commission one of his consoles.

You could copy the Moore Spark series. Unfortunately I cant find schematics or even gutshots...

+1 for the Delyk MINIBOARD PCBs:
Em drive comes to mind — as simple as a BazzFuss, 5 parts but an OD of course.
If you use stereo jacks, you could make a small splitter — and then a mixer in another
Stand-alone voltage starver.
Stand-alone TapTation for connecting to various PT2399 builds such as Deep Blue Delay, Rebote, Cave Dweller etc
GuitarPCB has a nifty little board called the GBOF. Currently sold out, but I could mail you a few.
There are about a dozen projects for it listed — quite a few repeats IMO, as Barry tends to exaggerate numbers (such as listing the Mole and the Hog's Foot being counted separately but they're the same circuit — or his RATT, which his build doc lists 6 clipping options, but two of them are effectively OFF so really there's only 5 — but I digress).
You can do so much more with the GBOF than what's listed. I've laid out some crazy stuff with it where parts have spilled out onto multiple pots, daisy-chained the boards to make a bigger circuit... but again I digress (I'm good at it, digressing).
Emanating's Black Acid maybe...
GPCB also has the Zenith Mini — a Zen/Timmy type dealio, plus AMZ and SHO boost boards, OneKnobFuzz...
ROG
Joe Davisson SIMPLE SIM cab sim
Joe Davis Antiquity Fuzz 5R, 3C, 2Q, 2D, 1Tr

Then there's Chuck D. Bones' Express-Lane thread... 15-components or less!
(A pretty good fit for GBOF, too!)
Highly recommend checking this thread out.

To me, the colorsound one (or in this case zero) knob fuzz and similar squeeze the most out of a very simple circuit. Put it first in the chain and your guitar's volume control can work as an effective "fuzz amount" control.

Had fun with Bentfishbowl Boot Boost and Boot Fuzz, FSFX (Fleeting Spider) Quiet Treble Boost.
Measure twice or more before execute. That the fun and joy moment.
Funny, in my country, the price of 1590LB > 1590A.

Fleeting Spider was new to me, thanks for that.
I've seen the Boot Fuzz before, but the "BentFishBowl Boot Boost" ... that circuit took me a while to find as I don't think I'd ever visited Dylan159's BentFishBowl website before.

They have an Audio Engineering Discord if you ever want to chat with him.Fleeting Spider was new to me, thanks for that.

Boots Boost is possibly my fav boost. Just clean and quiet. No colouring or preservatives added.

I have never built in a 1590lb but I love seeing them, so I'm commenting so I can keep track of the thread if more pictures turn up.
I haven't been on DIYStompboxes in a while, but I know there was a 1590lb thread on there with some absolutely absurd builds. I think the most insane one I saw was a Deluxe Memory Man, I'll have to see if I can dig up the details on that one again. The guy that did that one did a good number of insane 1590lb builds, usually acid etched enclosures if I remember right.
EDIT: found the thread, you can check it here. thomasha is the dude I was thinking of, here's a couple pics of his 1590lb Electric Mistress:
