Every once in a while I do the electronic equivalent of eating the leftovers that are still hanging around the refrigerator. This is basically a Mahayana Drive, but made from whatever I had on hand, and therefore missing all of the specialty things that would probably really make it a Zen Drive. Like it doesn't have the MOSFETs being used as diodes in the clipping section and instead has a hodgepodge of diodes, including one weird Ge that I had left over from my Fuzzy Fox.
This enclosure isn't my usual style, but this is what happens when I commit to using only extra parts. I had an old 125B with too many holes in it and tried to fill them in and then shield it, and then embraced the whole "Zen" thing and learned that Miracle-Gro corrodes copper like crazy. The real big-picture win here was that I took the time to draw up the vero layout, which I'm not really that good at, and it seems to have worked.
