Re: Dumble Aluminum Trim Question

What bothers me most is how to make such clean & precise cuts? Nice cab, by the way ... 8) Thanks! If you’re concerned about making clean precise cuts of aluminum trim, please know I didn’t use anything fancy. It was simply a hack saw with a bit of patience and extra care. I did a practice cut and ...

Re: Dumble Aluminum Trim Question

where can I find info on the Aluminum trim type, thickness and length? Is there a drawing somewhere? Screws etc.? Thank you! Furthermore, I didn’t actually find much or any information on the aluminum trim. I just winged it and I would say I nailed it. Use a common countersink in a drill to get the...

Dumbleator Transformer?

I'm thinking about building a dumbleator. I'm having a hard time finding much information about transformers for this thing. From what I can gather in the pages on this forum specific to the Dumbleator is that the transformer is supposed to be 135V. I found these two transformers. I'm wondering if e...

Thanks! Are there any tricks to ensure that the top horizontal aluminum bar aligns well with the vertical bars? Or do I just proceed with caution?

Dumble Aluminum Trim Question

I’m in the final stages of a Dumble Style Cab build. I’m curious if there’s a specific way to mount the three pieces of aluminum trim pictured below. Do I affix them to the cabinet itself, or do I affix it to the grill cloth frame that goes in the middle. I know there are typically two holes towards...

I just realized this should be under “Speakers & Cabinets”… sorry everyone! I’m not sure the appropriate way to flag it for moderators to have it moved.

Virtual Heater Center Tap? Actual Heater Center Tap? Both?

I recently built an ODS #124. I realized the transformer I originally ordered didn't have enough voltage (320V), so I ordered a new one (340V). My first transformer didn't have a center tap for the heater wires so I did what the ODS #124 schematic originally called for and I put in the 120 Ohm resis...
