I put the kit together and bypass works and led lights. No sound at all when I switch to what should be the chorus effect. I have redone all the solder points as suggested on this board but problem still persists. Any suggestion on what to do next would be greatly appreciated. Here are two pictures taken which may help. Thank you

Hi - welcome to the forum! :D

Thank you for providing photos of your build, however they are much too small to help. Can you repost them in a larger format?

Check out this thread for your next step: http://byocelectronics.com/board/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=52188

Thanks for the welcome. I've attached larger files. Hopefully they will help. I have already tried the reflow of the solder joints but nothing changed after doing so.

Did you dial in the chorus effect with the trimpot as described on page 13 of the instructions? The optimum setting should be somewhere around the middle of the trimpot's arc, and I see that it is set way over to one side in your photo.

That was it!!! Thank you so much for spotting that. I was getting no sound at all so I never considered that the trimpot could be the problem. Thank you very much. Now I can put the pedal back together.
