Batteries for the Philco 39-71!
#7

planigan Wrote:To batterymaker, WOW. Thank you very much for reposting the pixs. I believe it is styrofoam and a plastic/phenol sheet on to it? What did you use for sockets and how were they attached to plastic/phenol? Did you manufacture those battery boxes and if so how the heck did you get them so great looking? PL

Nope, not styro--it's a combination of wood, masonite and PCB. Sockets are PCB drilled to spec and they use the tube socket clinchers. I've found they'll hold battery pins just as well as tube pins.

Everything's done in-house. Had to design the cover based on an original, then they were printed off a color laserjet.

As I heard a British man say about tending hedges, "It's odd work for a little money." Icon_biggrin
