Here's the MXR117/SAD1024 i built but that needs some trouble shooting....meh...

Posting it before the inside becomes a mess due to trouble shooting.

Once functionnal, i'll make a clip to compare it to my original Ross... should be interesting.

I love that old school mxr. The daughter board is so cool. Are those snipped PCB pin pots?

Thanks!

Yep, snipped pcb mount, i only buy those... ...easier to make them «solder lug» than making a solder lug pcb mount for me.

PCB mount is the way to go.

Great looking builds.  How does the MXR sound?

Thanks, but at the moment, it's a buffer in a huge box with knobs that do nothing... got to start/finish trouble shooting it. :-\
