Website Design

Hi There,

I've started doing website design part-time. Small scale for now, just getting my feet wet. I'm mostly doing Drupal based sites, but I've been doing web design and web programming for over 10 years now.

Lab Setup Circa 2007

Pictures of my Lab Bench and Equipment, sort of a mess, but I was working on a project. I'm setup for audio vacuum tube amplifier work and antique radio repair. I have also put together a GPIB system to automate measurement of plate characteristics.

10 Inch Speaker Cabinet

in

This was my first guitar amp speaker experiment. Nothing special at all, arbitrary sizes. What I focused on was to build it very sturdy and to build it deep. This is to minimize low frequency cancelation of air traveling from the front of the baffle to the back - better bass response. To aid strength, I decided to use box joints and to create slots in the box so that the baffle is built into the box rather than screwed to it.

Single-Ended (Class A) 6L6 Guitar Amp

in
