Just got done building one of these. Little thing kicks major butt for what the circuit entailed. Gives you that "mojo" grit. I was actually expecting a lot less out of this pedal then what I actually was getting. Must try it through the Marshall now.

jerry, I used the values that R. K. has on his Geofex.com site and for the layout I used Dragonfly's vero board layout over at diystompboxes.com. You can get to the layout section through the forum link. I did not bias the pedal as per Geofex instruction, just the initial stock values. I am ordering the parts for my second RM. This time I will bias the pedal and see how much that makes a difference. I was really freaking impressed that the pedal worked the first time I hooked everything up.

One thing though that I need to see on my next build is that I believe the pot hookup on the RM layout is backwards. I had to reverse the wires going to the outer lugs to get the standard clockwise=on rotation. Either that or Mouser accidentally sent me a reverse log pot. One thing I would say is get the pot from Small Bear if you are thinking on building one. The 16mm log pots that Mouser sells are indented(stepped), where Small Bear's are not.
