1 x 4.7uH inductor - L1
(optional) 1-3 x auxilary FETs - These can be placed on the bottom of the board to drive additional LEDs.
Stencil - download the kicad files, export gerbers and upload to OSHStencils.
Solder paste
A reflow skillet
A test rig - if you want to test the result without soldering.
Follow this handy guide for how to put everything together. Note that the markings on the board are not great for locating where to put the components, so I recommend printing out a component map and the list above, then cross things off as you go.

Reduced number of different components by two.
Better stencil (might still need improvement though)
