There's already a verified smaller layout with fewer cuts and links  posted here.

I designed this layout so the brick would mount to the underside of the board, lined up the off-board wiring, have all the components laying down and holes to route the wires through the board.

Unfortunately, these obsessions resulted in a larger layout with a ton of cuts and links. But rotated clockwise, it still fits in a 125B. I did have to file down the side edges just a little.

The build doc is here

Note: bottom IC is upside down

Update - 06-12-2016: Cut (or omit) the link between Pins 2 & 4 of the brick, It's not needed as pins 2 & 4 are connected internally on the brick itself. Also, consider socketing the 47k resistor as this controls how fast the oscillation kicks in when the switch is engaged.

(I found a 2v drop across the 33R on mine, I lowered the value to 10R for a 0.64v drop)


(with temporary brick harness - recommended in case troubleshooting is needed!)


(and the payoff for all the extra cuts and links - tidy wiring)
