No problems! Glad to help whenever I'm able to.
I went ahead and tossed up the complete
operation manual if you or anyone else needs it.
I also dug out the best datasheet for the 1V or IV (eye-vee)
rectifier tube. It mentions a value of anything 40µF or more needing special design in terms of inrush current limiting. However if you use 10µF caps like most of us are, that's only 10µF directly on the plate, the
other 10µF has ~20K ohms in series with it, nothing to worry about there...

Drip some ethanol (aka denatured alcohol, not rubbing alcohol though...) on the stain, then daub it with a paper towel after 30 seconds or so. If your paper towel looks like you just wiped up a spill of cola then that's all shellac, and unlikely to be transformer wax... (Ethanol usually won't touch any of the waxes used for potting, it will however pick up carnauba wax to some extent...)
