Paxolin boards/Slotted turrets

Post by sct13 » Mon Aug 25, 2014 4:53 pm

Hi all, I recently obtained a kit from ValveStorm, build is on its merry way.

I was wondering where I could find the paxolin boards with the slotted turrets, anyone know?

I found a web page but he emailed and said he wasn't doing them any longer.

Thanx.

Guessing you're referring to Brian H. He made great boards, sad to see he's no longer in the game.

A couple members here do make classic boards. Art does I believe.

I'm not sure who is making them these days. You might need to grab some material ans start drilling. Keep everything on 3/8" centers and you'll do fine. Does Valvestorm sell the turrets?

Thank you, thank you, thank you

Game plan change then, I finish slapping the metro board together, and get the parts together for a "vintage" build and do it slowly and methodically.

thanx to all who responded.

You can get all of your board building stuff here, including a template with 3/8" centers for Marshalls ($24.95), along with turrets and staking tools.
Board material they stock is not paxolin though.
It's a start.

That's You? I'm the customer you sent the wrong color board last month and you never replied back to me. Remember!

No Sir, not me! I don't build boards, but want to get into doing it myself.
I did sell you a Power Transformer a couple years ago, and you sent me some Bianchi Mustards.

Yes it was. I appreciated the caps you sent to help compensate for the shipping.

Fired it up tonight....and to my surprise ....it works!
All the voltages lined up quite well and there were no wiring mistakes that prevented me from plugging right in and playing my favorite chord....."A"

Real good too.

thanx again to those that responded,
