Bring out yer Diptrace

I haven't ordered adapters like this in quite a while, so I'm struggling to remember what their minimum dimensions are. I want to say it's 10x10mm... might have to be panel-ized if it's smaller, maybe? I'm also not sure about the threshold for shapes, but typically curves are fine. If it's overly complex, they just tack on an engineering fee, but that shows up in the item in the cart before you check out.
I just checked, it's 5x5mm minimum size, so that'll work. I'll just give it a try and see how they turn out :)
 
99% single-sided for etching. Adding in my overly complicated switches and making the layout mostly nice looking and symmetrical necessitates a single jumper across those two square pads under that central switch. But it fits the PPCB 6-hole pattern (well 5, since there's nothing on the middle top, but yeah...)

I have a few I've been messing with getting my feet wet. The SeaMoon is from a while back. The RatBender is a just a Rat and Tonebender mixed together with a rotary switch to select diodes's for clipping. I'm sure I skimmed that off someone (probably here). I have yet to order those and verify them. The rotary switch was just something to make mounting the mini switches off-board easy (I made different shapes besides round for fun) and used it in my Whisper of Screams build. The ALPs one is for a preamp board I have that I can no longer get the pot made for it for the balance control, so I made one for the little RK series that I can mount phoenix blocks on to wire it in with. And then the ubiquitous 3PDT pcb. I made a little voltage inverter for using PNP transistors on a center negative supply too. That one I have used.

Working on an AD633 modulator with a raspberry pi pico controlled AD9833 DDS signal generator for the modulation. This is a rough draft bench top PCB for making sure everything works right and determining what features are useful to have in a pedal. If the phase control ends up being useless I might swap out the µc for something smaller with less GPIO pins like something from the attiny series, but I have a ton of these Pico Zero boards on hand and built in usb-c means they're wild easy to program.
