The hard and fast rule is always everything before everything else…at least that’s how it seems.
Rangemaster-type treble boosters always come first in the chain, as do fuzz, wah, and compressor. I have so many ‘must come first’ pedals it’s not funny. Wahs always seem to mess up everything too. Then of course you need a buffer between your wah and fuzz for impedance matching.
There are days when I think John Lee Hooker had the right approach to using pedals (i.e., don’t).

I don’t think that’strue at all. You run an unbuffered wah before a Si fuzz all you’ll get is a lot of squealing (listen to All Along the Watchtower on Jimi Hendrix Blue Wild Angel: Live at the Isle of Wight — that’s an unbuffered rybaby into a Si fuzz face). Before a Ge fuzz, you’ll probably not get much wah at all and a wimpy fuzz. The impedance loading is all wrong. If the wah is true bypass, it shouldn’t matter where it goes when it’s off, and when on it’s immaterial so I don’t understand the reasoning for that part above.
The Big Muff seems quite forgiving in this area though, certainly more than a fuzzface.

And I like my tuner out of the chain, so it goes in one channel of an A/B box which doubles up as a mute switch (I used to use a switchblade for that, but i was too noisy).

Ach, just go see EHX Man at Ronsound — he’ll fix it for you

Refresh the page (Control+R [Command-R on a Mac])?

How about just getting one of these — less hassle (unless you enjoy the drilling, soldering, troubleshooting part).

What’s the one back-right in the second pic?
Looks like a 3034 but no tone bypass switch or NYC RI but no LED?
Where do you find all these triangles and ram heads ? Jealous!

Green Russian Big Muff or maybe a Superfuzz of some sort would do you.
Original Superfuzz can be expensive but there are lots of decent clones.
Or an Ibanez Standard Fuzz circuit (hunt out an old Mica/Bruno/Ibanez fuzz-wau) if you want a bit of an octave to it but less insane than a Fender Blender.
Although the Tone Wicker is a great sounding versatile muff…although I find mine a bit noisy, I doubt it would be a problem for shoegazer stoner stuff.
D*A*M Meathead is also a good, but expensive and hard to come by option…the Slomatics guys use those.
