Back down under after a long holiday.
It's time to do something.
The plan is to do a little bit each day and report here with my progress.
It's your job to kick my butt if I get lazy with this.
Day 1
Fresh pcbs made up.
By end of today, the plan is to have at least one psu board stuffed and soldered up.
If I have more time after that I will start some measurements on new devices I have purchased.
TO DO LIST
Wiring Looms
Install tube inserts
Test Powersupply
Populate pcb
Test amp
Edit: Transformer Specs Added
Pri A: 0—120v (BLUE—GREY) 50/60Hz
Pri B: 0—120v (VIOLET-BROWN) 50/60Hz
----------- SCREEN ------- (GRN/YEL) -----------
Sec 1: 0—19v—25v (BLACK-WHITE-RED) rated at 10.0A rms.
Sec 2: 0—19v—25v (ORANGE-GREEN-YELLOW) rated at 10.0A rms.
---------- MUMETAL BAND ------------------------
Resin Filled Centre = M8 Hole / M8 x 130mm Bolt Supplied.
Total Rating: 500VA.
Secondary winding resistance: 50mOhms each.
Here are the pcbs

Did you meet a strange lady?
Yeah
She made me nervous, but eventually I got a bloody vegemite sandwich, and it was all good after that.
Hahahaha

I like torturing people.
Hahahaha
I know
and I like to keep secret schmtcs still secret
ruin original one , then go public

Yeah me too. I certainly won't be publishing anything that is meant to be secret.
In fact I don't know what the original schematics are in most cases, I don't like copying verbatim, I prefer doing my own thing based on a general design idea (Thanks to Papa for the endless ideas).
Where you may see clone, is really not an accurate description.
On this circuit there almost is no such thing since the circuit values will be highly dependent on Vgs threshold and transconductance values of the mosfets, Idss values of jfets, etc etc.

@2 picoDumbs,
After your 21st November 2018 post the next one was on 4th November 2019. What happened during that time? Were you in prison? Loony bin? Spiritual retreat? Undercover assignment? Sex-change surgery? Kidnapped and your family told your captors they could keep you?
😕
Good to have you back! 🙂

Nice collection of caps. I recently paralleled 10X of 22,000 uf caps for making a 600A 1mS pulse using the 660A IXYS part. I was able to make the part fail, not on purpose. No smoke. No sound. Just a dead $20 fuse. No more 600A, 39V pulses for me.
I measure every component.
My first job was working as an Industrial Chemist, formulating and developing products for industrial purposes.
Every single component/ingredient was measured and characterised to ensure it conformed to the suppliers data sheet, before it was used with all other components to make a product.
My work these days is even more OCD than that.
Hahahahaha
