krank board question

[t-rack]

this is only the 3rd pedal i've made but it is the first single sided board, so my first question is -do components go on the blank side? second- is there any obvious reason i am only getting a signal in bypass and nothing when effect is engaged?

components go on the copper-free side, yes.

there are lots of reasons why it doesn't work, but you'll have to be more descriptive. does your LED work?
