When looking at the picture, it does not seem like your pedals would put a lot of stress on the patch-plug, but I would eliminate it anyway, as they are notoriously faulty after being put under some stress.
I perfectly understand the idea behind them, but in my opinion they do not actually work in real life...
I suggest that these kind of patch solutions should be avoided at any cost, since they do not take the pedal shapes into consideration. (almost no pedal has a perfectly 90 degree angled side)
Therefore they are exposed to quite extreme pressure and bending, every time you stomp on the boxes.
It will not take a long time before they start failing...
When it comes to patch cables. I always buy factory produced patch cables with angled jacks (cheap ones in stock).
So far nothing I can do (or find) beats the quality and durability compared to price.
ALSO: Cheap switches from China is not always a good idea.
I learned the hard way, so now I'm "
Bitches Love My Switches" all over... (sorry for promoting stuff here, but I just love the name/service/prices)

so i made a loop switch pedal from the diagram, using a 9v power supply rather than a battery. the problem i have is when i engage the pedal it is fine. when i dis engage the pedal, the output signal to about half. this does not happen every time. any ideas? oh, i used a 2k2 resistor rather than 4k7 i dont however think this would cause a problem as the power is only for the light. this is the only picture i have right now as im not near my pedal board.
