DIY Enclosure/Cabinet for PowerAmp & PreAmp

[suraj]

I have one grub screw of that size which i can take from another knob.I think it is M4,dont know how to measure it though.using a scale,the outer diameter is 4mm and length 5mm.
It has an hex head,will need an allen key to remove.

Would that do?I guess one cant say without checking though.

Eagerly waiting! been putting off starting the B1 build till the cabinet arrives. Now I will have no more excuse!

Bibin, I received the cabinet and accessories. Amazing packing and outstanding work on the Cab especially the front and back panels and also on the paint and finish. Going to try and complete the build soon.

Jayant, great work on the knobs. They look and feel awesome. Each knob is quite heavy and the finish really exquisite.

Keith, great job organizing the GB on the knobs.

Thanks guys for all the efforts put in to make this happen. The grub screws were a great idea.

Tell me the wait was worth it.

 

[TheCoolestOne]

Keith totally worth though the wait was killing and so frustrating that I almost contemplated on cancelling the order a month ago . I'm glad good sense prevailed and I didn't. I guess good things come to those who wait

 

[mbhangui]

Tell me the wait was worth it.

I also received the cabinet today. This is the best cabinet I have come across in India. The knobs are also awesome.

Bibin, Keith, Jayant, thanks for the effort taken. The looks are professional and awesome.

It is only now I realize that I have to get a source selector switch (3 pole) so that I can also turn on the respective led. Any idea where I can source this?

Why three pole switch? Didn't you take source selector?

 

[mbhangui]

Why three pole switch? Didn't you take source selector?

No. I probably didn't realize. Where is this source selector available?

 

[TheCoolestOne]

contact sachin. I am sure he may have a spare source selector pot.

Thanks to Sachin, I am lucky to get one kit. Should be able to complete the build with the cabinet the coming week.

Hi Bibin,
I have received the much anticipated parcel!

First of all I would like to thank each and every one who has made this possible!
Special thanks to the folks who have lead this and made a GB possible!

Bibin,
The packing is excellent and really well done!

I have received the following items:
1. My cabinet with 2 knobs
2. Ruenigma's parcel (cabinet + knobs) packaged together
3. Following knobs for my other friends:

svaze::::::2 Pot Knobs + 2 Selector Knobs
Omishra::::::2 Pot Knobs + 2 Selector Knobs
sann::::::1 Pot Knobs + 1 Selector Knobs​

I informed all and will coordinate to hand them safely to the owners

Bibin, the wooden panel is completely worth it just as I had imagined! Good job on it!

Big thanks again to everyone for making this happen!
Cheers!

Hi Rohit,

Glad to know that....

You can use Fevicol SH to fix the 2mm acrylic panel with the wooden panel. The spacers for mounting the rocker switch are kept inside the cut out for switch. It consist of two pieces, 2mm and 10mm . The 2mm piece should be placed on top of the 10mm piece, into which you can press lock the rocker switch. Use araldite to fix the spacers with wooden panel.

Thanks,
Bibin
