Great sounding pedal. My 10 year old populated and soldered about 90% of this. Graphic is a drawing into Ai and then photoshop.

Nice work! I put my daughters to work soldering as well.

Nice build, may I ask (and sorry if its kind of newbie), how are you wiring the footswitch pcb and the circuit pcb? It doesn't seem like you used cables since they are so close together?

Such an attractive pedal, I would buy this

I solder in some bare wires to the main board sticking up, wiggle the footswitch board over them and onto the switch to solder. Bing bang boom.
