Looks great indeed!

If that LED bothers you, try one of these:

They are slimmer than those white nylon washers so the LED won't look so close to the footswitch.

That's really impressive. I finally bit the bullet and bought one also.  I hope mine will work but wow there's a lot of parts that I can screw up. Great job!

I just ordered the parts from the pre-selected cart in the build doc. 90% of the parts are there and clearly labeled by mouser.  From there just take your time and go one part at a time!

Hearing yours made me realize that there is clearly something wrong with my build. I tried to bias it twice and it is quite distorted. Need to open it back up and check for errors.

great job and nice audio demo
I build pedals to hide my lousy playing.

Excellent job! You learn so much the first build, but then of course you want to build something else:)

For biasing, it sounds very good! A little grit but lovely. I think I rebiased mine 3 or 4 times. It should sound close to the sweetest delay you've ever heard when its right. It really is a GREAT pedal.

The grit in the recording is from the phone.  I was very surprised it sounded that good using just a cell phone!

FWIW,  I'm already building an Afterlife...
