Based on the Lovepedal Eternity layout from tagboardeffects. Probably not an original idea but I put the LED in a 2x8 piece of vero with the CLR and hot glued it to the enclosure (don't particularly care for soldering wire to the LED leads:)
Fired up first time!

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

Nice solution for the led wiring. That looks nice too. How does it sound, do you like it?

PhiloB

jprizz, this is my first OD build.  I'm relatively new to pedal building.  I say all that because I may not have a real objective ear right now.  I've only played about 5 mins but it seems pretty responsive to picking dynamics.  Minimal tone coloration.  Tone knob seems to be usable across the whole range.  Seems very good.  I'll try an update the 'review' on Monday.  I hope to have some time to play then.

PhiloB

My main reason for choosing this OD was because of thorough walk through of the vero layout over at tagboardeffects.  Trying to get my head around all this stompbox 'wizardry'!

Mark, or "lvlark" , does some great vero layouts. I've built a few from him. And he's helpful.

Yeah, it seems like a great community over there

Yes.  I've got the parts to do Engineer's Thumb Compressor (5knob comp) vero layout from SabroTone.  Lots of cool stuff there.

And turretboard.org too. Not updated much, but for vintage stuff, it's like a goldmine.

Ch1naski, I haven't come across that one.  I'll have to check it out!
