SMT Zerobeat Kit
A customer, Jer, AA1OF, sent me pictures of his completed SMT Zerobeat kit. It's a beautiful job of both photography AND build quality - I wish I could do work like that. And I took the liberty of slimming down the picture size, too.
I wonder about that pot marked 104, that looks aftermarket to me, but we'll allow it :)
For comparison here is my photo of the prototype from the website:

The prototype does work although not as pretty :)
If interested, here is a link to the SMT Zerobeat kit (in stock):

FYI: the SMT Zerobeat is a surface mount version of the Grandson of Zerobeat kit. It allows a Morse code operator to quickly zerobeat a transceiver with another CW signal to within roughly +/- 10 Hz. Just tune carefully until the center green LED is lit.
