Awesome,just bought some, free shipping too! Thank you.

Well, that is the largest one on Amazon, but if you want, I can blow it up in Photoshop.   ;D

Alright. Got paid and just purchased my 3 boards. Looking forward (kind of) to learning more about smd.

One more day for the Fundraiser. We have raised 90% of our goal thus far! W00t!

OK, just ordered a second packet. :)

Good luck!

Well, all of the International orders will include the 47uF 1206 caps, so you should be good to go then.

It's awesome that you attached these capacitors! They're the only part I couldn't get. I already wondered were these parts came from (I didn't pay attention when I emptied the bag). Btw., a good source of parts in central Europe is RS components, except for Footswitches and special parts like the Pt2399. Also, I get discounts over work :)

I got one question concerning the Nomojo Fuzz, though. Some of you were discussing getting the signal from the Fuzzface into the Tonebender or vice versa. I guess that's just a bonus feature since it is supposed to be 2 separate effects, right?

This would be my switching for the NoMoJo Fuzz. That should work?!

I wouldn't go with that switching. I'd go with two 3PDT's, each wired according to the MBP wiring diagram, like so --

Input jack goes to input of first stomp
(FX in and out goes to first effect)
Output of first stomp goes to input of second stomp
(FX in and out goes to second effect)
Output of second stomp goes to output jack.

You could get fancier with an effect order changing switch.

Since I stuffed mine in a 1590a, I did a similar switch, except that I used a DPDT and didn't worry about putting about adding more LEDs.  I can tell which one is on based on the position of the switch. 

If I did use a 3PDT, I'd probably use a bi-color LED.

Why shouldn't it work? I cannot find any mistakes...

Because either way, you're still going to use two stomp switches, but with one way you can have both on at once, with the other way you cannot.

My idea was to use them separately, not in series. That should work with my setup.
The only problem I see is to fit all that stuff in the 1590A!

I've stuffed two circuits in a 1590a before.  It can be done but it's a bit of a hassle.  I used a 3PDT toggle for the bypass switch on one of them.  Two stomps won't fit.

So, if I want to populate both sides and have a switching similar to the one I posted above (bypass stomp with indicator plus effect selecting), how would you do that? A 3PDT and a 2PDT stomp or switch (leaving the LED part off)?

The one you posted above will only allow one circuit one active at a given time.  Is that what you are looking for?  If so , you could use a DPDT as a selector switch ( 3PDT if you want to use separate LEDs).

If you want both circuits to be individually bypassed/enabled , you'll need two  separate 3PDT switches and you would use the standard madbean wiring for a true bypass effect .  You would just take the jack output of the first effect to the jack input of the second.
