True. But the shaft is longer to keep the shield about 1,2mm apart from the chassis. And I am pretty sure that the powder coated shield is not that conductive either.
Nevertheless, a clean and robust build is always a good idea.
Plus one point to my thought of using wood for the bottom instead of aluminum

Seems a litte pricey for what it is.
Perhaps...
But you have to admit... they score some nice WOW-factor points
Well I ended up without a preamp, so I had to fill in that spot first to be able to continue enjoying music
Plus I am also working on a transport, a phono, a turntable and a pair of speakers and I am optimizing my DCB1. Not to mention work and my attempts to get a proper social life, so it still might take a while

Ask me sometime about my 300B amp that has been a 10yr project...
how is that (SQ-wise) compare to F5?
I would love some input on my chassis design......

Yep. Already read that thread many times
Quick thought about the blue leds. In my experience, super bright leds can have significant effect on the sound, even if they are way away from the signal. Try disconnecting them to see how it affects your build
