'ullo, remember me :D
Due to my attempted foot removal my toys have been taken away so I've started playing with Komrade DHTski again.

2 x TX's and 2 x Chokes screwed to a lump of MDF. Bridge made out of 4 off 1N5820.

I need to achieve 300V DC. The Mains TX is 0-350, earlier in the thread Nick ...

No progress recently I'm afraid gents. I've spent the last 2 weeks of lunchtimes learning an entire set list for a 1 off gig I was asked to dep for on Bass.

No build progress but the upshot is that I now have £250 in the 'project pot', wahey :D

Morning all,

I was hoping to start work on the DHTski's PSU today but perusing my bits I've just noticed the 0-350 Sec on the Mains TX is only rated at 165mA. I think we were looking at the amp drawing around 180mA.

In your considered views is that a bit too close for comfort?

I've got the little bubble in the head shell bang in the ...

Thats true Andrew, Witham is small and we'd never fit all of EF4's peep and gear in. I'm hoping to do the next 'oop Norf' fest and natch Witham, sorry I couldn't do Owfest but summers just so lovely for skating all that 'crete just gets the better of me.

At EF and WF I thoroughly enjoyed the ...

From my newbie limited experience of 'fest's, I thought Witham gets it just about right.

Smaller room, rows of seats, comfy surroundings, space at the back to stand and chat, space at the front to set up and listen. Central location too. Cheap B+B round the corner and proper Beer and food (inc Veg ...

I'm not very good at irony but I do like a laff.

Music is such a personal thing, everyones bound to differ on opinion's and views.

I love it and the way it gets reproduced using plastic, glass, bit's of wire and paper.

I'm a simple sort,

Good 'ere innit!
