despite a crippling hangover I plowed through and fully assembled and tested a board today! It worked the first time! Super stoked I didn't make any dumb layout mistakes. I played around with diodes a bit too and found I like either none at all or basic 1n914, germanium and bat were too low output, they might be better with a higher gain transistor in the recovery stage though... I have 8 extras if anyone is interested in a pcb, I may make a post in BST later.

I'd be interested in a PCB for personal use, cash or trade?

I don't really need any other stuff right now, are you thinking PCBs?

I've only one PCB that is refined enough to comfortably shoot at another builder right now, that would be the Tetanus Booster. It's a straightforward build with jellybean parts that can be configured for clean boost (it'll output around six volts if you want it to) and I've a simple SPST fuzz mod if the natural gain is too modest.
