HA! Sweet work and great lessons learned bro! So... what sort of wattage and what size speaker in that sweet little beast? Kudos! -Glenn

Thanks Glenn.  The amp is a massive 1 Watt and the speaker is 7cm/2 3/4".  This was the only "reasonable" sized speaker that I could find with small outside dimensions.  As it is, I had to shave some of the neck away and file down one of the string ferrules to clear the speaker.

I have found that anything dropped while working on a bench will find it's way to the furthest, dirtiest spot underneath and if working on a car, anything dropped will roll to its (unreachable) geographical center. As far as #9--always try the simple stuff first---of course you don't think of it till last! Art

Hi, I have Found that the CSI method of looking for clues works (small powerful torch)  well for finding parts, even in daylight. I find it focuses the eyes to a specific area, works most times.

if it does not work, I call in the wife, that always works.
