This is my Scott 299 amp completely rebuilt, with a custom case I made of 1/2 in aluminum

and some roll stock for knobs and feet.

I made the fan case out of same materials. this build was before I built my matching Diy turntable

Thanks , No when I first got it and had the guts rebuilt, before I

did the case I didn't know enough to mod it, I am now just staring to

think about that. If you or anybody have any ideas I appreciate hearing

about it.

Thank You for asking Ken

Thank you for the compliment, It took about 5 months of weekends on an off.

The hardest part was learning how to polish the aluminum its a dirty job and takes

a lot of time, thank goodness for UTube ! the rest was just cutting and taping the aluminum.

a little tough with just normal tools at home, but relay not that big a deal to do.

The face plate I had the lettering silk screened buy a place in NY.

WHEW! That is truly first-rate metal work! Beautiful! The fan 'housing' looks awesome as well.....do you find the amp getting overly hot? With this kind of aluminum work and thickness, there is probably very effective heat-sinking capacity. I have seen lots of chassis work over the years, and as a DIY effort your work is extremely good.
