Re: Transformers back in stock

Thanks. The problem was with my email server blocking his response...I think it might have been trying to block "sluts" and "trannies." :shock: My mail hosting is pretty tough.

Re: What are you doing for boards?

I draw mine in Auto Cad, print to scale, lay over the board for my drilling template, then I use my drill press to drill and press in the turrets. I use a hack saw to cut the board (it's a bit of a pain). I just didn't know what the dimensions are for the turret locations. I ended up buying this one...

Not much that I've seen for the power board - but good layouts for the preamp board.

Re: What are you doing for boards?

Anyone selling a good board set? Shoot me a PM. I hand make the perfboard and sell TW perfboard sets. Sen...

Re: What are you doing for boards?

I've made some and I've bought some. I guess some of it will depend on how lazy I decide to be! :P

Is there a layout for the boards?
