Im interested in this one now. Found a vero board layout that doesn't look to crazy! Synth sounds like fun!
The LFO section of the vero that's out there doesn't work correctly. It sorta works, but not like it should. It should sound like these clips: 1, 2 & 3. They're not mine by the way, but they're the ones that made me realise mine wasn't working correctly. I ended up binning that section and doing my own LFO.
Likewise these clips from the homewrecker page give an idea of some of the things the Ugly can do on it's own 1, 2 & 3. It's so much more than a fuzz factory (and to be honest a wolf computer is better than a FF also, though much more like one).
Also there is a mistake on the vol pot and some changes that can be made to give frequency pot more range. I have an unverified vero that I've yet to get around to building based on these changes (I also have a verified working LFO that will bolt to an existing ugly face).
I will be building one shortly anyhow and will have a play with it then.
I'll shuffle them onto my webserver and post them up for you to have a go at.
Done it:
Verified working LFO vero. Though the depth pot is better as a trim pot.
Schematic for the above
Not verified combined vero

Well, I received the .031" boards. I think I'll feel quite comfortable working with it.
And yes, this stuff seems like it could be cut with a sturdy pair of scissors as long as they have smooth blades. The grooves in kitchen shears leave nasty markings on the copper IIRC. Using straight blade snips is probably the way to go.

I would always sand a lot and prime them first. I don't paint enclosures any more though. I buy them powder coated, decal them, and use the process I listed above. Unless you are painting your enclosures all the same color the paint and enclosure cost end up more than just buying a powder coated enclosure. Plus the time involved...
