So I bought a Devi Ever Soda Meiser PCB and buit a pedal, it turned out OK.
Though I had a little problem and contacted Devi who pointed out where I went wrong (a stupid mistake with a capacitor)

I am actually modding it again for Diode clipping (an LED) just because..

Any way here is some pics
Its a simple pedal




I added a nice bright LED, I did use a blue one but I blew it to be honest red suits it better




Here is my crappy wiring (the PCB is mounted on Velcro)
You can also see where I slipped with the iron and touched a couple of caps.

looks good, her boards are pretty cool because one board gives you options - you need to add a resistor to one side of the LED, otherwise you might blow another one. You can adjust the brightness too depending on the value you use.

I have used resister its just covered
It's not a wire even though it looks like it. But I chose to have lower rating as I like bright LED's

I Like the boards to very well built, I am modding it again to try LED clipping (I tried it for fun and I like it a lot).

very clever, now I see it - is it shrink tubing? I'll have to remember that next build, I usually just wrap in electrical tape and it usually looks crappy.

Yep shrink tubing (I forgot the name) they sell it every where here.

Good to see it has turned out alright! Clips at somepoint.

I will at the weekend, I want to try some mods first.

Schweet. I look forward to it

looks awesome, post some clips if you can

Nice build!

I'm starting to get the pedal DIY fever...

I will have to delay the clips as I was trying mods and grounded the board and blew (and I mean blew up) a transistor
I will post clips once i get the replacement

Awesome.
