Thanks flat5. I've built some other small electronics before, but they always sucked. Then I fiddled with some tube audio and thoughy...now I'm getting somewhere!!! This particular project really got me excited aobut DIY audio.
Okay, here is a pic of the board. It's not my pic...or my board, but will give you a perfect example of it.
Two pics of the case with batteries. I added two 9v battery snaps so I can go longer between battery changes. I also had a pretty good scare when showing this off to a family member. He looked at it up, down and upside down. When I got inside to show him the details the battery was sitting on top of the board. Geez, it could have shorted something out! So I added some foam rubber, just like an old transistor radio. It is removable.
It's a pretty good fit for the Hammond 1455J case.
Here's a quick view of where the board sits in the front. The volume knob is soldered directly to the board, so the whole unit is right up there with it. I suppose one could not mount the volume knob on the board and just wire it up from a distance if you were really in a tight squeeze.
