Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: Interesting Factoid

In facility construction as with most businesses we don't re-invent the wheel. If a high quality DAC is needed, we just buy one already made. When we need something we can't get off the shelf, or have a quantity needed that makes in-house fabrication economically feasible, then we may build it.

Oh one more trick and I can say this because I hid behind a moniker. Say we want some new DACS. That's a capital expense that could take a year to budget if it's approved at all. "What's wrong with the old DACS?" But we do have a maintenance and repair budget. Nobody questions buying parts. So we get to build a project our way from the repair parts budget. Again it still has to make some sense to embark on a project like that - authorized or not.
