Before populating the PCB you can use it as a drill template by poking a pen through the holes where
the pots are.
Populate the smallest components first, e.g. diodes and resistors. Best soldering practice is to tack-
solder the component in place so it does not fall out, then snip off the excess leads. Then re-solder
the joints properly. This ensures the cut ends will be fully coated in solder. Failure to do this will leave
exposed copper that will oxidise over time.
The square solder pads on LEDs and capacitors indicate the anodes (e.g. positive terminal, long
lead).

If you use insulated jack sockets like I do then you will need to connect the metal enclosure to circuit
ground, such a solder tag connected to a mounting screw.
