I drilled out the enclosure and did the graphics as well. Although it may not be the most stunning wiring job, I was amazed that it worked first try. There was a fair bit of swearing involved in boxing it up though. I also neglected to leave room for a battery. Next time.
My first build is done!

My first build is done!
After trolling this forum for far too long, I've finally been able to get my feet wet following through the Tonefiend projects. I built the first 3 projects, and decided the boost/buffer'd be the one to box up as I figure I"ll use it the most.

Re: My first build is done!
looks great except for maybe the power jack. try these if you know you dont want a battery hook up.

and maybe throw some electrical tape on that battery snap so your V+ does not touch the case that is grounded. this would short your power supply. not good for the power supply.

Re: My first build is done!
Thanks folks!
In regards to the power, I had fully intended on having the battery option, just forgot to leave room for the 9V when I started drilling the enclosure. Didn't realize there would be so much of the power jack hanging out the side, but didn't have anything handy to add as a spacer.
Did put some tape on the battery snap though. Thanks!
