Realized lately I haven't had a ton of motivation to build but it appears I've been a pcb collector more than a pedal builder..lol What about you guys? I really need to knuckle down and build some of these pcb's that I've never built out.. I just went through my spreadsheet and I have just over a hundred different pedalpcb boards on hand... sheesh
 
I figured I'd be making some good headway on the backlog because I have an order coming which will allow me to build 13 boards.

There have been a few threads on the topic...

Thread 'Hall of Shame'

Win by having the largest backlog! Mine is mostly utilities, so I sit safely behind the winners' podium. What about you?

Thread 'A backlog of builds'

Reading the “all in good fun” thread made me realize that I have posted very few of my builds. Mostly because my art game is lacking. Now this is going to be a bit of a “nip slip” “did I just see what I think I saw” sort of post since these are not particularly close up shots, but here we go:

Thread 'How Big Is Your Backlog?'

I finally dug out my stash of unpopulated boards. I've got 21, plus a bunch of stripboard/utility boards. What do you guys got?

when you own enough of them that you're not sure if or when you're actually going to do something with them. bonus points if you assign rarity based on whether you can get them anymore or not
