I've got quite a few old military test equipment cases sitting around. I think I'll make a few more unusually cased beasties.

Oooooo a repurposed bit of military grade equipment with modern high gain internals... 8)
The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.

Added photo of my girls amp. A work in progress. It has an orange ad200 preamp on the front of a holdenish power stage. Bias of each 6550 can be adjusted separately, just in case it have difficulty in buying matched quads down the track. I have 22mm ply and lime green tolex for the cab.

Also put up a pic of some 1930s bits and pieces of old electrical kit scavenged from cant uni. I plan to encorporate into an amp at some stage.
