This very neat housing was made for me by my friend Des McNeill who used aeromodeling grade plywood lined with metal litho plate for screening. We had the front and back panels made by a commercial engraving company. He then covered the box with Vox tan coloured vinyl. I think it looks great

Now, that's a face plate that I can read clearly. Would that fit Ecca's unit? (It looks very similar) and can it be reproduced easily?

That looks pretty cool Phil.
If you really want it Al I can get some more faceplates made.

If it could be done at a reasonable cost, it would suit me, However, I'm watching your other developments and if something else came up which I was interested in, I'd be happy leaving the original as a back up as it is, but I guess it all depends on your plans.

I'll not be using the knobs with the scale on them- it'll be etched into the nameplate.
I'll use aluminium again, no painting, no rust.
The box is lightly bigger to allow for the valves, it's 10 by 3 by 8.
It will require a 12 volts AC power supply,
Watch this space.....

Watch this space!!??? My eyes have been glued to this this space for the last several days . . . and my ears too !!

Hi Alan,

The front and rear panels are both 204 mm x 52 mm, if that's any help. I did the design work and Des arranged to have them made. I'm not sure how many he ordered but, maybe he'll reply if he reads this?

Hi Alan,
I ordered five sets,front and back, since I was making five boxes. I will enquire pricing on individual sets but they were not expensive.

What's the name of the engraving place Des ?
Mine cost me a fortune to have made.
