Not quite up to the usual standard's of some of the superb valve amps you folks post here, but i've just started playing with these handy little Leica boxes i found laying around in work.
The next step is to build a valve amp in one of these cases.

NICE!!
I really like the subtle glow of the tubes.
Any chance i get to peek at the internals?
Oh and i'm curious how you guys mount the LED with the default socket on Pete Millett's BOM.

There is no LED on my tube sockets. I was trying to figure out how to wire up the LED on my vandal switch. I thought there would be another way either than taking it off the 48v at the jack but it looks like that is how I will do it. BTW, the internals are a big mess of wires! Not as pretty as some of the more experienced builders here. I think the only thing I did that was unique was to put the heatsinks inside the case and to use nicer materials than typical for a "student" build.

Bamboo Stack-able Drawers actually.
Yes, it is a 3 channel SSMH. It isn't concrete as I still need to scope it out, but I am definitely satisfied at the moment.
BTW: Thanks for the compliment - I was going for something on the cute side - just not too girly. I mean, it will soon have QP85's plugged in (and those need all the help they can get).

Starving Student, for my first build.
It's all pretty standard, in a Hammond enclosure. I built it with a star-ground, which created a bit of a tangled mess of wires internally (my design looked better on paper). I'm very happy with the sound however, and having a working build first time is a welcome suprise.
@Germania: What do you do with a 3-channel amp btw? What does the extra channel drive?

ltmon, very nice looking first build!
I, for one, and perhaps many others wished our first efforts looked that good.

There's a reason I didn't post a picture of the internals
Did you see my question in the last post? Just wondering what you use a 3-channel amp for is all

ltmon, it is an active ground channel.
Though, still count it as a WIP for reasons explained earlier.
