Do you mean the actual copper 'rails' or the lines in-between?
I clean the in-between stuff as I go, BUT will definitely do so at the 'end' just to make sure.
Thanks.

150k, 1k, 820R, 2K2 and polarised caps added as well...100uF and 10uF.

Sorted 
1M, 10k jumpers and sockets added....getting there.

Thank you....But I know it's in there so, I will sort it.

350C seemed to be good.
Need to tidy-up the tatty edge where I cut this with the hacksaw.
4 cuts to the rear of the board and the 3 'jumpers?' in place.

Excellent, thanks for that...I will experiment and go from there. I am always worried about 'frying' components with a soldering iron...ie resistors and the like but, I will go carefully.
Have some free time today so, can look around for the temperature I vaguely remember seeing, pretty sure it was 350C.

That would seem to suggest 60/40 becomes liquid at 190C so, 350C seems a bit high to me BUT, as we already know, I don't know a lot.

No sweat....I think something I am not asking the right question here...Will think of a better way to put it tomorrow.
Appreciate your help.

Will do....I just meant isn't there meant to be an optimum temperature? I forget what I saw...350-370? Something like that..being lazy, will go back and try to find it.
I will experiment with a scrap of Vero....not too concerned re the solder flowing, more the heat of the iron damaging the parts if the makes more sense?
Appreciate the responses.

Appreciate that....
I was getting worried after 41 views and no responses!


Lower temperature....can you be more specific please? Using a soldering station...just trying to get this dialled-in correctly from the start.
Is there a favoured brand of solder, bearing in mind I am UK based?
Thanks.

Hello...
So I am going to attempt to build the One Knob Fuzz using Andy C's layout.
BEFORE I get going, I want to make sure of a few BASIC things...
I am England and have read on here about different forms of solder...I would like to know which one would be 'best' ie 60/40 or the other, 63/37 I think? Also, what is the right diameter? Too thin might take longer and therefore use more heat against parts?
I have an okay soldering station...'Grandma Shark' 937D...Again, I would like to make sure I run it at the optimum heat setting.
Idiot questions I know BUT, I want to get this right from the start.
Appreciate any clues/advice.
