3PDT switch question

[El Spearo]

Hi guys. I'm making a bypass pedal, and was wondering if there an "up" to the switch, or if it doesn't really matter which way it goes. Here's a pic:

Thanks guys!

As long as you have it turned so that the holes in the lugs are up and down you're golden. From there the top is throw 1, middle is common, bottom is throw 2. It's obviously possible to flip the switch 180 degrees vertically so that throw 2 is on top and throw 1 is on the bottom, but they'll be functionally identical based on how you wire it.

Thanks mate, that's what I figured. I've wired it and tested and it works! I might add an LED in the near future. Pic:
