I just finished my 212m Dodeca build. Even with their panel PCB, it's still a lot of wiring. I have photos and information on my 212M Dodeca Module page.
I chose to not build the 212 Headphone and Spring Reverb PCB which attaches to the rear. I have plenty of spring reverbs and the headphone amplifier is high power, which isn't needed. Instead I decided to try out a Belton Digi-Log Reverb brick and a simpler op-amp headphone amplifier. I do really like the sound of the reverb. It's stereo wired as mono and seems to have a bit of chorusing in it that is sometimes perceivable on the bench. My op-amp headphone circuit is trimmed down quite a bit for normal listening levels.
This one took a lot of time to build, and I didn't keep track. The nice thing is each of the subsections is independent so you can wire and test in sections. I only did a few mods on this one.
