I don't think anyone sent any special info or special pics, to me. I do get naked pics at times, but they're not that special. What I have, is on the layout, with all the suggested inferiorities, and inexperience. It is pretty much #124, so I guess I did spend months studying that. I am not sure if ...

Hi,

I do wish this to be stopped.

For or against.

Thanks!

Dogears, Thats not true. I never used Funk's drawing. I stared at Gil's pics for months trying to get it right. I design chassis almost on daily basis, so it's not a problem for me, CAD and what not. From the pics, you can pretty much get what the sizings are. I do memorize things like the length of...

Dogears, I have no issue with this at all. In fact, people indeed should be made aware that each builder has his own sinature, and this is what makes it great. What I was referring to was the really scathing personal attacks, ramblings made by you know who. I mean, I thought the TGP issue was over? ...

Hehe...ouch... No disrespect to the builders, and perhaps it wasnt fair of me to say that -because some of you dont know whats been going on, or going on. As I said, I will pretend those things never happened, those words never said or written. Anyways, it's cool, really. To each his own, I can resp...

Hi Richie, and everybody, Here it goes again. 1) I am pretending not to see some of the things written. 2) To those who have said good things about me, thanks. I appreciate it. But, please, by no means on my account, you need to suffer from backlash, revenge, maiming or the such. Let old hags gossip...

Hi!

Paul Ruby is here?!!

Hi Paul, how ya been! Been a while...

Salut!

Nik

Darn, this is good forum! Where have I been?

Hi Dana

Cool.

OK, that should work, provided spacings of the mtg holes relative to each other is standardized.

Please see drawing attached. Is this about same as with yours?

Thanks!

1) Didnt wire up bright switch (dont have the component in hand) 2) Ran out of mallory 0.022 - used poly film/foil. 3) Didnt have 1K 20W - used 10W. Hot! Nik How can ampkits ran out of any components!? This happen to me all the time but you, I just can't believe it! :wink: Nice work Nik! Let's hear...

Hi Dana, Well, sorry. But it doesnt make sense. There are 18 holes, so there are 17 spacings of .265. This will give about 4.505. Add .265/2 x 2 for each end = 4.77 I know this is splitting hairs here, but it does affect the thing terribly since the mtg holes are so close to the tranny bottoms. The ...

Hi there, I am trying to standardize mtg holes of the power supply board for the chassis. what concerns me is the actual dims: If we have .265 spacing (I assume c to c), then with 17 spaces in the width, thatd be about 4.5" only (plus about .265/2 for each end for ttoal width of about 4.77). Is the ...

Hi all, Turned her up just a few minutes ago. Impressions: Well, I think the sound has been described here, both thru posts and MP3s. But to note: 1. This thing can feedback your note forever. Man, I cant believe it. 2. Clean sound aint much, not much headroom but as mentioned by others, you can wor...

Hi, Yeah, an issue indeed. Theres lots of tweaks that can be done, would it still matter? Yes it would. Selling a marshall versus "I swear this is completely my design and itd beat any amp" - which would sell more easily? Someone said that buying a TW is buying KF, or his ear. This is quite spot on,...

Hi Omar,

Having much fun I see..!

Nice amp you got there.

Just registered, not much to say yet. Will have a proto build for standard kit in a few days.

A bit different than the original, but minor. Cant justify prices of such things as 2W AB 100k resistor!

Thanks!

Nik
