Headphoneus Supremus
I did the work on David's amp(headphone), and it is a nicely designed unit. If you want it for Modding experience, I might suggest something else, since the Modding you can do on it is really limited to the coupling and cathode capacitors. The rest of the amp circuit is Surface Mount, and the Power supply is Switched mode which I wouldn't touch. Also, there isn't a lot of space for adding boutique caps, unless you are willing to modify the case as well (as several posters have done)..
I misunderstood your earlier post about desolder vacs, I thought you were referring to the electric continuous vacuum desoldering gear which heats up and desolders all in one continuous operation. I found it difficult to get the hang of heating up the joint with the iron and using the manual vac at one and the same time! Have you used the electric one, it looks so easy this way, and I would get one of these if I had to do a whole lot of desoldering again.
