Translating Veroboard layout to Pad per hole

Im trying to make a colorsound fuzz but only have pad per hole board.

Is this correct

So in the veroboard layout there is a strip of conducting material which means that in every row there is a connection just like if I would have soldered all the components together in that row in that side of the component. So to convert this to pad per hole I just solder together connect all the parts that are on the same column in a continuous part that is connected on the same side of the trace cut.

Example being I would solder together Q1 center leg to the 220pf cap ,150K resistor and the .1uf capacitor?

is this reasoning correct?

Are you not able to get hold of an veroboard? It's very easy to use, cheap and readily available. I'd just buy some of that.

find the schematic and do the layout urself..... that would be easier than converting it

fyi...Vero is the way to go.... its easier that perfboard...

This should answer all ur questions

the schematic can be easily found doing a google image search...

I could only find pad per hole at small bear and I just dont want to waste especially for this project since it doesnt have that many components, but is my reasoning right?

yes, the rows connect everything that is soldered to them.... compare the layout u have to teh schematic to see how it is laid out and how the parts are connected to make the circuit.... this is a very good simple curcuit to study to understand layouts...also look at the pics in the link I put in my previous post...

Thanks i was kind of sure thats how it worked and just needed to double check so that i could know how to make a layout on veroboard
