It seems a large chunk of the cost of building those boards goes into the jacks and pots. I have so many complete boards that I want to keep but have another $7 or $8 dollars of rarely used hardware attached.

So.... I've recently taken to using terminal pins or "flea clips" . Pretty simple, but when building multiple fuzzes or pedals you want to keep as "sometimes ers"... to keep as reference for possible guitar /amp combos, just having those pins in the off board wiring positons and clipping in the appropriate pots and jacks wired with clips is a valid money saver.

Pretty obvious, but I thought I'd share it.

Good idea - one of those simple observations that should be pinned up somewhere obvious for all to see!
