Not your typical Scratch Build
#1

Greetings Everyone!      

I just joined and excited to share some of my past Scratchbuilt projects.

I've always wanted to scratch build an inline chassis but I do not solder well, so piano wire and brass plate was not going to work for me.
 
So, I decided to build myself a "Retro Mod" chassis, using the inline configuration I grew up with, but with a twist.
 
As I was "imagineering" my concept, I decided upon using composite sheet as the base chassis material and fabricating the other parts with aluminum 6063-T5.
 
I had cut out a few dozen chassis designs with each and every one being revised, because it was crooked, uneven, or I did not like the design.
 
I started out with different sizes, but ended up selecting a .062" thick Phenolic G10 Composite sheet.
     
 
Here are a few of my recent chassis design pieces.
   
 
More to follow.

Thank you.
 
Ernie
