Re: First BFM Build Odyssey: Tuba 60
I'd add a suggestion, fasten the board you are routing the hole through down to a sacrificial base via some screws through the piece that will be discarded, by doing that when the router breaks through it won't damage the edge of the hole you made.

Re: Industry Standards to Turn Everything On/Off
If you are up for it take a look at Randy Sloan's designs, unfortunately he died many years ago but his designs are excellent. I'd recommend both his books which include circuits for protection etc. https://www.amazon.com/High-Power-Audio-Amplifier-Construction-Manual/dp/0071341196 and https://www.a...

Seth, As a very long in the tooth retired engineer, (and I think you're probably there already regards this recommendation), when a "transport device" comes with spares the reason is usually due to frequent prior failures. I'd strongly suggest you replenish the parts you have used from th...

Re: What's to chat about?
So, a little update on my adventures... 53' boat procured. I just completed the first journey, 250 miles up the West Coast of California. From Morro Bay, under the Golden Gate Bridge, into San Francisco Bay, and up the Sacramento River into the San Joaquin Delta where I currently live. 2 days and 9...

Re: What's to chat about?
Your passion to sail around the world reminds me of an expatriate New Zealander I met in Northern Alberta. He was building a 40 foot ferro-cement sail boat in his backyard. He eventually had the boat lifted out of his backyard and onto a trailer to move it to Vancouver for final fit out. Last I hear...
