I see this psu. I need advice how to increase current, I need maximum current, can I replace 560R to 1R to get max current? I appreciate any suggestion. Thanks

if you want more current run out from this sch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Efficient_energy_use
it is good just for small power, not for big.

Add: I have L7805 / 7905 for this, just want to get maximum 555 can do, without changing my pcb

No, you will need different regulators, the 78L can only supply 100mA. Then you need to look closely at the charge pump. The output caps may need increasing, the frequency may need to be higher, the diodes & transistors may need to be beefier. There is plenty of info on the web on how to design charge pump circuits, probably including some simple calculators.
