The simple fact is, there are no through-hole versions of some of the
components used in John Nagle's design.
Or at least, none that I could find after a few hours spent casually going
over the schematic and looking up data sheets and such.
Unfortunate, but it is what it is.
Also the layout of switch mode power supplies is entirely non-trivial (I
would go so far as to call it voodoo)... a simple parts swap conversion
from SMD to through-hole is highly unlikely to work without significant
re-design.
