Hey, just show-and-telling – got the turret board wired up and ready to drop into another La2a build.

Thanks to Mr Carlson for the video on finding the outside foil lead on caps. 🙂

Cheers!

@wholetone Yes, always fun to see other finished work, but not the board itself.

Awesome work, super neat. PRP’s are great.

 

Do you have a branded staking kit? Or home brew?

@w00t I used this for staking. One could make the tool, if you had a shop!

Thanks! This one’s for the Mrs, so I’m having fun with colours!!

Was supposed to be for Valentine’s but the traffo’s are hung up on a boat somewhere in the Atlantic.

So that just means I can take my time and have more fun with it.

Thanks for checking it out – I’ll post the finished pics when done.

Cheers, all!

🙂

I should remount the lamp, so it lights the meter more evenly. I mounted the holder without the bulb in it – forgetting it’d be off center with the bulb in place.

oh well!

@wholetone Or mount a diffuser to the top of the meter. Might make the light more balanced.
