What's a good place/website to get schematics or kits?

http://www.schematicheaven.com/effects.htm

thats only good if you know how to read schematics though

Yeah I can read schematics. I'm an Electrical Engineering major and shit. Some of these schematics are really sloppy though.

yea i didn't really look at them too much i used one of them back in high school...

TonePad is pretty sweet. I was actually just looking at Build Your Own Clone right now.

ya... i thought you weren't an effect guy?

Not particularly, but I want to build shit. Also, I have no problems with sticking an overdrive in the FX loop.

the taste of cigarettes does some of this shit if i remember correct.

Yeah, I'm kind of waiting for him to see this thread.

to the top?

i tried getting into this but it ended up that it was gonna cost more to make it myself cause you need a few things to get the boards circuit paths stamped and what not....cost the same initially as a used pedal. if you got/get the stuff and plan on several creations (and putting in the time), its worth it.
