G'day Madbeaners, Matt here.
Just finished a kingslayer,untested as yet.I used an spdt on/off/on switch instead of a simple on/on as specified, for the OD section. I wired it up the same as the build document indicates.
My question is, will this work the same as an on/on switch,  as long as the switch is not in the middle off position.
And if it is ok to use should it be wired the same as the build doc suggests?
Thanks,
Matt.

I think it should work fine. That switch adds or removes D2 and D3 from the circuit, and the way you wired it up gives you two positions without, and one with D2/D3 in the circuit. Check out the other switch in the schematic (Clip) and imagine D8 and D9 not being there.
