I thought I was going to build up my next Fuzz Debate this weekend, with more tuning and different NPN, but nope, turns out I оrdered the wrong 4PDT switch, so I grabbed another project that has a case waiting for the pedal.

Here's my second build of the Ohl Junction, a PedalPCB Guvernator. A fast and easy build, especially when I got past the pico-/nano- mistake.
#2 has a some improvements over #1, using my preferred audio jacks, grounding the case properly, and generally cleaning up the wiring a bit.

Another killer! The poem especially.

@Robert I hereby formally request that you start putting a poem in each build doc, preferably iambic pentameter.

I had been thinking he needs to spend some more time on those, and stop rushing them out so fast.

Me too! It's way more fun playing little guessing games while building! I think to make time for poetry he can leave off the long boring column of part values, and maybe ditch the schematic.

What's with all the connectors? Seems like more work than soldering

My skills with a crimp tool exceed my skills with a soldering iron?

But seriously, you have a valid point - I prefer to be able to work on the pedal outside of the case, but I could halve the connectors and still get the ease-of-assembly that I am seeking. I will have to see how that works in my next build.
