sup, the pcb layout is complete. see below:

The big rectangle whole in the middle is a place for the 9V battery to lay. I figure this is the best way to mount it in a case, in the middle of the circuit board so it can sink the center of gravity of the device. Otherwise observe the isolation gap. I did absolutely no analysis on how wide this isolation gap should be. Hopefully no one uses this to do thermal analysis on their tesla coil or anything like that. If they do it will probably end badly.

The pcb routing and placement is defs sub optimal at this point. No power planes at this point and long traces. I don't really care though.
