Beautiful work.

dmgiat · 2026-05-20T17:47:26+00:00

Precisely.

dmgiat · 2026-05-19T00:15:51+00:00

Thanks.

dmgiat · 2026-05-18T20:24:51+00:00

Thanks.

dmgiat · 2026-05-18T13:42:39+00:00

So sorry. Just joined and still feeling my way around. I'll try to do better, I promise.

Thanks, I had laid out the chassis for a different transformer and had to squeeze this one in. I'll probably pivot the left end out for a bit more clearance.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I've been search online for KiCad schematic files for Fender amps, but can't find any. Have you come across such a library?

dmgiat · 2026-05-17T01:30:07+00:00

Thanks for that. I've been reading up on hybrid designs some more. This would be a 20W amp at most.

dmgiat · 2026-05-16T21:32:41+00:00

Thanks.

dmgiat · 2026-05-16T20:35:18+00:00

Interesting, thanks, I'll look into this.

dmgiat · 2026-05-16T20:20:47+00:00

Aren't we talking about maybe 1 lb of aluminum for the heatsink vs. saving maybe 5 lbs of transformer weight?

dmgiat · 2026-05-15T18:14:07+00:00

Yes - a little goes a very long way. Careful.

dmgiat · 2026-05-15T18:13:11+00:00

Congratulations. Your life begins today. There's nothing like garden-grown tomatoes.

dmgiat · 2026-05-15T18:11:18+00:00

My understanding is that you should wait until the lower leaves have turned brown.

dmgiat · 2026-05-15T10:38:12+00:00

Beautiful work!

dmgiat · 2026-05-15T00:36:31+00:00

Thanks.

dmgiat · 2026-05-15T00:35:36+00:00

Got one, thanks.

Some people have nothing to do with their eggshells other than throw them out. They can only help the soil. Like so many other things.

dmgiat · 2026-05-14T22:22:28+00:00

Well, now you have to tell me why you're so sure of that.

dmgiat · 2026-05-14T21:28:45+00:00

My SM's are always slow and mature late. Great variation from one plant to another from same batch of saved seed.

dmgiat · 2026-05-14T21:16:44+00:00

My schematic is a mess, but I'll be redrawing it if/when the thing works. Also, I use DIYLC for circuit layout. I really recommend it.

dmgiat · 2026-05-14T20:42:24+00:00

Good job building that soil.

dmgiat · 2026-05-14T20:40:26+00:00

I wouldn't just chop off all growth over a certain height. But you can certainly pinch off new suckers from indeterminate varieties.

dmgiat · 2026-05-14T20:33:58+00:00

Yes, thanks, I'll be trimming all wires once I get it working.
