Hello

I m just gone a start a SlowLoris in few weeks, my first pedal, and I have some questions about this project.

1) I forgot to by the 3PDT bypass on madbean, can I buy thos one : https://www.musikding.de/3PDT-Buffer-pcb

2) How many LED i need for this project, they say 2 on the documentation, sow it's mean two drill for led on the enclosure ?

3 ) What is PCB Mount ? I m gone a build it in 1590BB to have enought build space, do i need wire if i'm not solder the pots on the pcb ?

1) I wouldn't buy that one, unless you like to have buffered bypass instead of true bypass. You could use this one: https://www.musikding.de/3PDT-Board-set-of-3, though you would need to figure out what to attach where (and this one has a LED and LED resistor that are also on the PCB, so you need to choose which one to use).
2) Two LEDs for clipping and one as on/off indicator (not specified in the BOM). You could drill holes for the clipping LEDs (they might light up when you strum your guitar hard), but there's no need: they are for generating distortion.
3) Your choice: either buy PCB mount pots and solder them directly to the board, or 'regular' solder lug pots and wire them. This is DIY after all  8).

I would buy that and all the other ones cause that's what we do.

Pedal building is like the opposite of sex.  All the fun stuff happens before you get in the box.
