Really bad webcam picture since I'm on my mini and I cant find the camera right now... A real photo will come later. It is a flat black base (MDF) and dowel rod, walnut upright. The rod has was dipped in a rubber coating, then shot with the flat black. The walnut has 3 coats of tung oil on it.

Me = pwned.

Went to a small electronics shop, asked for thermal paste and got a small jar of silicone paste. All labels were in polish and I couldn't understand a thing. Smeared the trasistors on the Z1, put the board in the case and it acted funny on low power tests. Took the amp out of the case. This evening I searched for some info on my thermal paste and it turns out it's thermal insulation not thermal conduction paste. Sweet.

Back to the shop first thing tomorrow. I can only imagine the horror of blowing up the amp because of the stupid insulation paste :(

Thanks Adrian and Aaron.

Adrian, do you have a computer shop you can go to for the paste?

Lots of options for paste. This time I wanted to buy a larger quantity instead of the 2gram seringes.
