Here are some better photo's of the builds:

Eternity



Timmy



Deep Blue Delay



Wampler Black '65



Nurse Quacky



RC Booster

Thanks guys,

Here's a shot of all of my pedals so far:



The lit up base plates are 3mm clear acrylic. I used 1 LED at either end point towards each other. It gives a pretty even light all-round.

So I built a love pedal eternity this time last year and really enjoyed the experience. Then I tried the engineers thumb and try as I might I couldn't get it working. In the end I stopped trying. As it happens I'd bought loads of bits from tayda, but not tried building anything with them. Fast forward to new year 2014, a bit bored at home. Got this huge box of bits and a nice solder station, let's have another go!
Well the first pedal went well and I am hooked again. Well since the beginning of the year I've built:

Wampler black '65
Paul Cochrane Timmy
Comet filter
Rog big grace
Mxr headphone amp
Nurse quacky
Xotic rc booster
Blue clipper
Engineers thumb (different schem, still doesn't work, so probably a knackered ic or transistor)
deep blue delay

All (apart from engineers thumb) I've had working. Some definitely nicer than others. I boxed up the Wampler, deep blue delay, rc booster, nurse quacky and timmy. I've had a go at custom paint jobs, but are isn't really my thing:

I've run out of enclosures and money at the minute, but once my wife lets me have some spending money  I'll buy some bits for another 10 pedals.
