The pics were in no way a critique of your build. Just an example of what I wish I could come close to doing!When you have lots and lots of extra terminals, getting things tidy is not so difficult. I ultimately should've added a second twelve lug turret board to this build.
I hope this isn't taken as thread crapping but this wiring job has me speechless!
These are a spec build that I wanted to do just to explore some possibilities.That is quite impressive. I like the way the wood side panels are tucked into the chassis.
Are these for you Paul or did you build them for someone else?
The boss talked me out of bends and into smoother radii over the years. It doesn't look as good, but it is less stressful to the copper.Are there some bends in wire mostly about aesthetics?

I finished these up last week, but took my time getting the cherry sides cut.

A lot of meter light leaks out of the vents, so I'll have to cut a little piece of black ABS or something to block that a bit more.
1 - Where did you get those sockets. I'm on the hunt for quality jumbo 4 pins.
2 - You have schematics? Looks like an interesting circuit, fairly simple as well.
Only by accident!Nice power output, might be well suited for an lf amp perhaps?
These are just the standard Chinese 4 pin jumbo sockets. They are pretty annoying to mount, but I use #10 threaded standoffs and #10 rubber washers so I can get some tension on the hardware without worrying about cracking the ceramic. If you need McMaster Carr part numbers, I can look them up.
I'll probably take a few more months to quiet down the "what ifs" in my head before I have something fully ready to publish.
Only by accident!
