Podzuma Reborn - The Finished Product

I do still owe the world some construction pictures, but for now, here's the finished product for the rebuilt Poduma:

The case is made from 1/2" MDF. The finish is several coats of Plasti-Dip.

This is pretty much a standard Podzuma build, with the exception of the separate power switch, and replacement volume control. The volume control is a 50 Kohm audio-taper dual gang potentiometer. The power switch is a simple SPST switch with integrated 12V LED, which actually renders the super-bright blue LED power indicator somewhat redundant, but since I'd already drilled the dish, I can live with it. Everything else is as specified in the original build plans from PartsExpress. Since I'm using the separate power switch, I shorted across the red power leads on the T-Amp board.

I routed 1/16" reliefs for all of the dishes so they'd mount flush, and used T-nuts and machine screws (with the heads also coated in Plasti-Dip) to secure them, to make removing them easier.

With 4 heavy drivers and the MDF construction, this is definitely a weighty beast. I may try giving it some wheels or a cart for easy transport. The handle and case can definitely bear the load, but I certainly wouldn't want to have to carry it more than a few yards on a regular basis.

Construction photos soon.
