Time this weekend, what to build?

Okay, totally subjective question here.

I posted this on BYOC too just to see what people had to say. Right now, my effects rig is a GGG Brassmaster clone, BYOC Flanger, and an EBS Compressor. I have a few things on the bench right now and haven't had the time in a long time to pull anything over the finish line. I have some time this weekend. Here are my contenders. Please give me your totally subjective opinions on what to finish first.

1. Meatball clone: have a populated board, just need to drill the enclosure and wire in a power jack and put on knobs.
2. Nurse Quacky: have a populate board, just need to solder on pots/jacks/etc. and drill the enclosure.
3. Wah: have a shell, a fasel, and a partially populated byoc board.
4. OCD clone: have a populated board, just need to solder on pots/jacks/etc. and drill the enclosure.

I also have a boost board that I could add to any of these...

Okay, what are your thoughts?

I've got to pick one, though. I'm not lazy at all-- just end up creating too many projects for myself!

OCD + boost (boost first. OR, make switchable!)

1. Mark and drill all enclosures. get that done an out of the way. Its easy if you do an assembly line style.

2. Ditto with pcb's.

3. Now you can do the wiring.

4. Happy happy joy joy!!!
