RIFFS: Father's Day Amp Built By Kids

A Gear Page member gets a great Father's Day gift from his sons

This might be the most adorable Father's Day gift ever. The Gear Page member skhan007 posted this handbuilt amp given to him by his three sons (ages 8, 6 and 6) for Father's Day. The outside is sweet enough, but we were blown away by the wiring and components:


Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there!

OK in all seriousness, this is fab! Well done to the builders. That amp is packed with 100 watts of love.
