Hello together,
I've built the Woodpecker. Worked first try, sounds just as expected (listen e.g. video on the EQD youtube channel) and the layout of the PCB is very nice.
However, a short hint when using the drilling template:
Place the hole for the LED more towards the top of the 125B enclosure. I would recommend putting it for about 1,25cm / 0,49inch higher. Don't put it higher than that! Otherwise it will get in the way of the legs of the potentiometer nearby.
In my case, the legs of the LED were too short to put them right through the holes of the PCB.
The improvement idea for the build docs: Place the hole for the LED higher on the drilling template.
Thanks for the nice projects and happy building!
