Members BottomHeavyKate Posted July 20, 2009 Author Members Share Posted July 20, 2009 That would be the wrong part, not a substitution. damn. Well - I suppose I'll be taking everything off to remove the plastic while I wait for the new part to come in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Incubitabus Posted July 26, 2009 Members Share Posted July 26, 2009 This is prob buried somewhere in the build thread, but since you said you were sticking to the cheaper end... What did all of the components run you, BHK? I might soon have enough extra cash to build one of these for myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might soon have enough extra cash to build one of these for myself... The kits were $900+shipping. We got them for $446.61 + shipping. Apparently the price has come down, but they are still $840.http://www.mojotone.com/item.asp?pid=88817&pg=44991&id=5550007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Pickdust Posted July 26, 2009 Members Share Posted July 26, 2009 Holy Wires Looking good Kate! Ain't it fun feeding those transformer wires through the grommets? Gonna bring both of mine (one stock and one with a master-volume mod) to the next GTG.One step at a time and you'll be there before you know it!

I've been using yours and Guttermouth's threads for this. You guys have been a life saver Edit: And I had to take the damn thing off to get the plastic coating off - then switch it again. New trick: I slide the grommets on first and run the wires through. Then I use the pointy end of my multimeter to push the grommit into place.

Then I use the pointy end of my multimeter to push the grommit into place. BHWAAaaaaa I did the exact same thing (switching the transformer around) and with the grommets but used one of my jeweler's flat screw-drivers to, very carefully, push the grommets into place. Looking good! You should be ready to power up and take readings in about 2 weeks or less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bleepo Posted July 26, 2009 Members Share Posted July 26, 2009 Really.Me 'n Patrick are in a race to see who's last.....Can I play? Then again, Mrs. Bleepo wants it done asap.
