Getting Started with Building Pedals

So on a PCB like this, you could safely ignore those earth's coming from the PCB to the sleeves each Jack? Pending earth is covered elsewhere from the DC Jack to ground and board.

So long as all ground points are connected at least once then you should be OK. Running a ground to a 6.5mm jack is the easiest way to ground the enclosure. As you know, the DC jacks and switches are insulated from the enclosure.

So if the board has a dedicated earth point elsewhere, you can ignore those earth points to each Jack (like in the picture I linked earlier)? Sorry for being pedantic, just trying to be clear in my head.
