I've dry mounted the components that I have. I will re-check before I solder (possibly thursday) and I need to plan out where connector wires will go and running connector wires under the board.
I want to have it all planned out before I solder.
One note for those who plan to build and not buy from a kit: It helps to be a detail person. Double check before ordering that you are ordering the right parts. Also, it may help to buy the chassis first. The mistake I made was ordering the tube sockets and not knowing what size hole was in the chassis plus their mounting specs. Also when ordering I didn't double check my quantities and I accidently ordered one 9 pin tube socket when I meant to buy two.
