I cleaned up the adjustable coils on the top of the chassis in preparation to solder the caps to the chassis. I used my 150 soldering iron to apply a small amount of solder to form a nice fillet.



I then noticed that the hold down screws on T107 were over torqued. It looks awful.



So I pulled the transformer and disassembled it. I straightened the screws. While I had it apart I dusted it off and cleaned it gently with some alcohol. These pics are before I cleaned the coil.





I reassembled the transformer and cleaned up the case and terminals. Ready to install.



Re-installed and ready to wire. I'll do that later while I'm recapping etc. I also cleaned up the case on T108.



Next up will be to paint the top transformer cover. The transformer underneath looks very good.

My order from Digikey came in already and while the transformer paint is drying, I'll re-stuff the caps.
