Santa's Little Helpers.

[Mike]

From time to time, there seems to be a number of members interested in DIY/Kit based equipment who, for whatever reasons, don't feel comfortable with tackling the job by themselves.

So if anyone is willing and able to help out this is the place to stand up and be counted. Just pop a post in this thread, perhaps with a short note saying what your happy to get stuck into.

Cheers...

[Mike]

I'll start us off...

I'm happy to assemble kit based projects, cables, minor repairs etc. Pretty much most things involving a soldering iron in fact.

All free of charge as long as the equipment owner covers postage.

Please send PM or email.

C'mon, don't be shy.

I know I'm not the only one who's offered help with this kinda thang!

Hi Mike,
I was all set to contact you about this when a bit of a crisis happened this morning. We were getting the boiler serviced and the engineer reported that it was corroded and needed replacing. So I guess a bill for £3000 is going to arrive shortly.
Anyway a new amp is still important to me so later in the year I will contact you again to discuss the various kits and modules available if thats ok.

[Ali Tait]

Ok I'll volunteer also.Same deal as Mike really.Happy to help out.

Hey, I can do small repairs with a soldering iron, as well as iPod/iPhone repairs.

Mike, are you still using the Trends? if so I may still have the upgrade guide I used, it has some easy to follow instructions on replacing caps and shielding inductors etc if you are interested?

I am happy to help people out with kit building and advice on gainclones.

Is this for me (Jerry-Covenant)? If so it was trying to do the Audiomagus Tweak 2 upgrade that got me into bother. Puffin took the amp into intensive care and nursed it back to health with a new circuit board. It does have the bits from the kit installed. It still sounds brilliant in all honesty, by far the best amp I have used.
