Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

A pair of toroids that size will still make a nice honest little inverter

Thanks for the link.
He is good. So keen.
I haven't seen one of those solvent press-down dispensing pot thingies he used since my training days over 50 years ago. Nice hot soldering iron as well.

Yes, the toroids were a sight for sore eyes so to speak

I had to go look to see what you were talking about. I have two of those that live on my bench and still get used every day. I didn't realise they were that old ... though thinking about it, I bought them about 40 years ago from WES Components in Sydney.

A friend told me about some more new ones in a reject shop somewhere and he bought them for me ... and they're still sitting in the cupboard waiting for the others to wear out.

Cheers, Roger
