Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: BB Proof 2A3 DC

OK I think I am ready to apply a finish to the chassis(s).

I had more work to do then I thought.
A trip to theSource (Radio Shack was actually fruitful, as they had a couple of fuse holders I needed. I also picked up some binding posts, the first set were extremely cheesy, but they also had some spring load ones. I went with those.

Also I'm tired of filing out pretty holes for IEC sockets, so this time around I am going to use a M12 strain-relief pigtail. 7/16" round hole and it's done.

These decisions were made for expediency.

I still need some RCA jacks, but they are fairly common with a 1/2" hole, so I drilled for that size. (debated not even using a RCA socket, just a wire, but then I still need to grommet it and keep it secure so I wasn't really gaining anything in the effort department.)

Then I went to Home Depot to get a couple of suitable handles for the sides.

Eventually some small holes will need to be drilled for the choke and terminal strips, but the major machining is done. Hopefully I will be soldering some wire by the weekend.

Cheers.
