Nice work Adrian. My projects often don't work first time mainly because in my haste I often forget to connect something or plug the DUT in.

Heat issue's often arise with amp builds because it's often neglected and hard to design for at prototype stage unless you have some whizz bang measuring gear and software. Your a bit limited there as you can't drill holes to allow for a bit of up/through draught/convection because of the PCB. Still, shouldn't be a problem if you don't have kids/pets, just put a "HOT" sign on it.

Andy.
