I think we are in the final stages now. The only things left to do mostly involve a few parts on the way.
I have on order
1) Stainless Steel angle brackets for anti vibration mounting of a low noise cooling fan. It's not meant to be a whirlwind, just a bit of air circulation to keep temperatures stable to (a) maintain tone performance over a wide range of temperature environments, and (b) increase tube life
2) 2 Prong AC cable and jacks so the fan always switches on with the amp power switch but can be quickly disconnected for disassembly.
3) Fender Tilt-Back Legs for angling the amp up at the player's ears, reducing stage bleed but focusing on what the player needs to hear.
This is a photo summary of progress awaiting those parts.

Back Plate Design for effective port system to maximize cooling air flow while providing a bit more punch and articulation in the low end, especially needed in such a small cabinet

I probably should give a shout out to "tubesandmore/antiqueelectronics" online parts store for many of these new and vintage parts. They've been great to work with and a valuable resource.
