I managed to eke out a little time to work on the 6AS7 SET top plate this afternoon. I didn’t get a lot done but at least I’ve finally started.

Basically I’ve done the easy parts.

I’ve installed the tube sockets and the associated terminal strips. And I’ve prepared to begin mounting the output transformers.

I have to be very careful mounting the transformers because their metal feet can easily scratch the patina on the top plate around the holes. When all the transformers are mounted, I’ll turn my attention back to the chassis.

I’m hoping to be able to set aside more time tomorrow to get things done.
