Hey folks, thanks for sharing all of these links. I find myself at the beginning of my journey and these materials will help me set my first steps. I've taken the liberty of compiling all the links mentioned in this thread into a Google Docs Spreadsheet, which I'm sharing here. You will also have the possibility to comment on any cell, though not edit it directly. My next step will be to check which of these links are still valid and fill out missing fields. I hope this will help someone!

Here's probably all you need to know about transformer winding. Quite a few pdf-files, free download.

Also Google "crowhurst transformers". This may result in you finding articles not covered in the above mentioned link.

I have written a small guide for calculations on triode amplifier circuits.
With the help of some rules which I describe in this guide,
one gets fast results when analyzing these circuits.
Hope this will help.
