HiFi (Chifi) tube amp build - but my own design.
#18

Well, should I say that the electrical stuff was the safest of what I did otherwise as childhood entertainment.
But...All of us survived, even the guy who ate the content of the champagne bottle, stuffed with a healthy dose of calcium carbide, then with our combined urine samples in lieu of water and corked with a champagne cork, reinforced with many layers of black tape.
He was the most curious of all and was wondering why the bottle would not go (a champagne bottle can withstand pressure many times that a regular bottle could ), and he decided to help it blow.
Oh the childhood in a Russian village...well, we did not have an Opera house. We had to entertain ourselves.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
