Those Weber trannies are huge and do require a large box. I bought 2, but never built the PS with them. I did build a the single tranny version for my bench and I'm very happy with it. I did add a set of binding posts to the box for flexibility. I bought a lighted rocker switch from Mouser and wired the LED contacts to the 9vDC jack. Had to figure that one out myself. The data sheet showed nothing and the tech at Mouser didn't know.
It's all about the tone!

Firstly, because a transformer is an inductive load, should have have flyback diodes connected to it to protect the rest of the circuit in case of a voltage spite when it turns off?
You mean the main transformer? Where are you thinking flyback diodes are needed?

QuoteWhat about protection diodes at the start of the circuit just in case something goes wrong during operation? How would I go about this?
I'm going to need a pointer to an example circuit to see what you mean. Can you touch  up your schemo with questions and arrows?

In response to the questions in the forum - PCB Layout for Musical Effects is available from The Book Patch. Search "PCB Layout" and it ought to appear.
