That’s good confirmation that this is a good method to avoid the problem of flux and/or solder flowing downhill! It wasn’t until your post just now that I figured out what the heck Brian was saying. So to clarify – you mount the top plate in the plinth and put the whole thing on its side – and solder the RCA jacks in, with them in the horizontal position. This is exactly why we have Test Builders, to work out what parts you’re finding difficult to assemble.
Carry on with your excellent work!
Cheers,
