Slow progress continues. PEM nuts inserted. (one year and a month after last post )

First board mounted on the chassis. This is the 12V board.

Glad to see you are back to building.

I had wondered how it was going with you.

I finally got around to etching the new PC boards. The previous set came out too small for my chassis (except for the two in the prior post).

I found some tube sockets that looked like they are of the appropriate vintage:

I got really frustrated about 2 months ago. I had spend like 3 days putting an order in to Antique Audio; filling my on-line 'basket' with just about all the components needed to complete the build. When I came back to the site a few days later, the basket was empty.

I have to sit down and re-do the whole thing. I have a bunch of BOM lists, but this build has a few unique differences. Tracking those differences based on the pictures I have and resolving them is what takes all the time.

For example the holes and traces in my HRM PC board only fit a certain brand and style of trimmer.

Redo of the Power Supply board.

Redo of the HRM board. This one is the correct size.

Testing to see that the new boards fit on the chassis:

Tube sockets are in. This was a pain because none of the holes lined up exactly.
