OK, I'm going to sell them this time for $19.99 each.

Shipping will be $3.85 @ approx 1 pound 9X3X8 shipping box.

International shipping is $8.70 - well to the UK:

Over the sea (boat) is $3.80 but it takes forever. (Approx 2 months!)

If it's any consolation, the boxes list for $28-$29??? I believe (before shipping)

I will start PM'ing everyone.

aron

I wonder if I can tape 2 boxes together?

If so, the shipping would be: $5.75 for two.

aron

PMs have been sent.

I understand the cost might be a little high, so if you just want one of them, or changed your mind, just let me know.

The only snag is how to mount the tubes. I need to try a few methods.

Quotethere are 2 tube-holes cut out;
I/E-H use ceramic PCB-sockets for the tubes;
PCB is hung up in the box with (plastic) PCB-mount in-/out-jacks,
and a stand-off, which is located between the tube-holes;
the "height" of the standoff (=space between PCB and top of the box)
allows for radial caps;
the tubes will stick out ~ 1 inch or less thru the top, and are protected by the hood ("grille"), which itself is mounted with 2 screwable standoffs;

Right. I'm thinking of a few alternate methods that I'm going to try.

Thanks!

I'm game as well if there's a next batch or something...

aron

Mike,

Not everyone has claimed their box, so if I don't hear from the rest in a timely period, I will make some available again.

I will keep you in mind.

I'm also pretty interested in one of those if you get another batch.
The older I get... the better I was.

Aron, I missed this thread many months ago (been gone for awhile).

Any boxes left?

Is that one of yours Ton?

err, no - (except the old chassisdesign, of course - not the graphics, though) - I`m more into modulation, filtering & delaying, lately...

Harmony-Central FX-forum has been ranting & raving bout that funny video...
(from last NAMM show, there was a really cool video with my friend Felipe Souza explaining/playing the POG, and the new 16s Delay, though).

Peter Snowberg

When EH uses these chassis, is the circuit board mounted to the top or the bottom piece?

I would think the top, maybe using the screw hole that holds the center support for the tube cover and the pots as PCB mounted units? Maybe?

and note, that the box exists of 2 parts: bottom (U-profile with PS-jack hole),
and top (inverted U-profile with all other mounting/tube holes);
above mentioned "stand-off" is rather a "hang-off", in this case  :lol:
