Does anyone have any tips on grounding to avoid noisy effects and such?

Neat wiring (wires as short as possible), outmost separate IN & OUT wires and a ground plane on board..

Don't worry guys! It was all just a matter of me soldering the pots very poorly due to my lack of experience. I replaced the damaged potentiometers and the fuzz worked like a charm!
I'll try to do some new builds this next week since I'm on vacation, thx for all the support on getting my first pedal to work!

PS: Does anyone have any tips on grounding to avoid noisy effects and such? (The fuzz is a bit noisy when I max both pots, but I think i did a good job)

In terms of noise, it might help to use a battery as a power supply
