Double shot progress..pics

hi there!

well, just posting to show my progress on this project..
I did the boards, and solder the parts. Had to cut the ground trace from relays ..to control them with ground, not with V+..

did the power supply, worked fine, it gave me around 290 volts, wich is a good voltage for tubes..

Las night i worked on the box..I use an adhesive aluminum-like paper and print it with a laser printer..the i apply some acrylic laquer coats and stick it on the box ..pretty easy, cheap and very nice!...
some pics:






Sorry for the bad pics,..i´ll post some DIY porn (guts, board, wiring) soon!!

greetings!!

  Keep it up and soon you'll have the super nice box ! !
  Extra points for using the 'cage handles', recessing the tubes.

HAHA YEA..
the handle is intended to protect the tubes from hassles..and it looks cool!!! hahaha
i dont know if i should cut the sides of the face plate...they dont look too good..but i´m scared of messing the whole thing up...
