Long RCA Jack for wooden enclosure?

[Aengus]

On Sunday, I got out my Dremel tool and inletted the rca jacks and stepped ladder attenuators into the wooden cigar box that I am using for the case to my B1 Pre-Amp. You can see pictures of it there in posts #1018, and #1019. It was a lot more work but I was able to use the parts on hand.

And a very nice-looking solution it is.

When I was a kid, there were still books with titles like "101 Things for Boys To Do" which leaned heavily on the presumed availability of cigar boxes, but they were becoming less common even then, at least among my acquaintances. Nice to see that this approach is still in use occasionally.

Regards.
