Hi all, wanted to share a recent project I'm finally turning the corner on. A bit bragadocious, I get it....and a lot of photos. Sorry!
I've spent quite some time learning, studying, measuring, collecting, learning, buying parts, sand blasting, buying, powder coating, learning, and leaning on a member here in this forum (he knows who he is, and can chime in if he wants - very grateful for his mentorship).
I am pretty stoked to have finished one amp, and onto the other soon! Posting a few pics for others if they get a project similar.
Sandblasted chassis with new parts rough fit:
Powder Coated chassis with new parts starting to be placed:
Cleaned up, sandblasted and painted and powder coated transformers with some new parts:
Starting to rough fit components:
Getting there:
Done:
Final from top:
Pretty excited with how this one turned out. Now, to start the second one soon. Well, and I haven't sent any electricity through this one yet! Testing first....
Anyways, thanks for reading!

Impressive!Political Correctness'.........defined
"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a t-u-r-d by the clean end."
