When you´re racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just pies.

Congrats to you! those look awesome, and you've done something i've always been way too scared to try after having had confusing experiences with electronics in school..

and the fuzz sounds great too!

If i may add my experiences on biasing. as said, i know nothing about the electronics of it, however, if there's a bias know in a fuzz pedal, i tend to mark the stock setting then set it to where the pedal will just start to gate, then back it off a touch until i lose the gating and i'm getting the max gain and saturation from it. Ge fuzzes with a little more fiddling can have a nice spot where you get what what i described plus the cleanup when rolling off the volume.
