Another great resource for homebrewing techniques can be found here:
https://www.kg7tr.com/
Scroll down to the "KG7TR Homebrewing Tips" button which will let you
download a pdf. I saw Mike make this presentation at one of the W9DYV
Vintage Radio forums and was able to see the results in person - but you
can do the same by just looking at any of the beautiful homebrew radios
on his website. Mike shows all the tools that he uses, simple hand
and power tools, and emphasized that there is "nothing special" about
his techniques. I would only disagree to the point of saying that Mike
does an exceptional job of planning and designing his projects before
ever picking up the first tool, which is a discipline many of us lack.
As in any craft, that advance planning translates directly into better
results and fewer mistakes. You'll see that Mike's planning leads to
excellent-looking panels and documentation as well. If you have any
questions just drop him an email, I know he'd like nothing more than to
see more ham homebrewing!
