Seriously - nice workbench! I am sure many of us are very jealous.

Impressive workbench! Nice work...

It's not an integrated part of the workbench if that's what you mean, the test equipment isn't in need of it, just the DUT which uses a smaller mat.

fanstastic Ferrari, what are those plugs inside the tube amp that appear to be like usb connectors.

Hi All,

I've been reading through this site for awhile now and finally decided to show what I've been working on. I built a few CMoys over the last few months, but this weekend I put together my first mini3 and am totally loving the sound. Huge massive thanks to everyone on here - you guys are such a great inspiration for doing these projects.

Eehh… USB

???
Besides the RCA input connectors, there are 3/4-pins Neutrik connectors, used for the DC power supplies (6.3V, 160V and 250V).
The small switch on the right of the connectors allows a manually delayed power-on of the high voltage section (160V and 250V).

In other words, when the regulated power supply box is switched on, only the 6.3V heaters supply is activated.
The high voltage section will be manually switched on later, after the tubes are warm up.
It’s better for the tubes to implement the PS this way.

Thanks drizzt. I needed more room for some bigger caps, and that one gave me plenty of extra space. Definitely sparks conversation at work too - People walk by and ask me why I have a tin of mustard on my desk

You'd better hope you have them locked up good next time I'm in NSW.

Seriously jealous, that is what I'd describe as a dream rig!

Beautiful work! Congrats.

Very nice, John.
Good to see it all finished, much better than the Just Right box

 

[wink]

It has me buffaloed as to why I haven't built one yet.....

 

[johnwmclean]

^^ Thanks guys, do you like the selector knob? LOL. It’s temporary.

Does any one know a good knob shop? So to speak hahaha...

 

[wink]

Altronics on page 223 of their catalogue have some.
I seem to remember that on either the headphonic or rock grotto forum about a month or so ago there was a few posts with suppliers of these items.
Sorry I can't be more specific. Must be Old Timers catching up with me.
You could also look up the Jaycar website as well as RS Components or Farnell
