Big favor please?

I'm extremely green when it comes to "point to point" wiring, and I'm having trouble laying out the HT supply. My last amp used a "Cap board" so I was cheating. MY issue with this amp layout is that I seem to want to lay it out just as it is drawn, which i'm sure is the wrong route to take. I just lack solid experience! I've never even really seen what one even looks like other than on a PC board Any chance some of you seasoned builders might be able to roughly sketch out the Supply out in a efficient, but easily doable layout? Something using a few turret, or terminal strips, or what ever?

Can anyone help me get going with this creative part. If I had a basic starting point, I think I could run with it, and alter to my specific needs with this chassis.....

EDit: I should have mentioned that I decided to use doubled caps in series with the associated balancing resisters to get the needed voltage rating

Can I suggest using paper cartoons. Cut out pcs of paper the size of components and then place them in a frame the size of your space. I did it with CAD as I was use to using it. Paper works just as well though.

Remeber to keep your iron at 90degrees to each other

FYI, I have a workable layout for the amp section when you ready.



Glad to see you working on it!
