Connections
to the outlet
will vary
depending
on
the type and
style you
chose. A duplex
type
may be
handy in
the future
-if you
add
an AC-

meter. While other cans
may be
used
to house the miniature

The
lamps are powered
by
a 6.3 -volt
fila-
ment
transformer
which is enclosed
in a small
wooden box
at
one
end
of
a
board
used for a
base
-the
front portion
of the
base supports
the timer
itself. The
various
dimensions
of
the
box are
adjusted to
suit the size
of the
timer.
The
top
of the box
holds a line switch
and
four
binding
posts;
the right side, a
single
AC outlet
-for the
timer's
AC plug.
The
light for
the timer
dial connects
to
one pair
of binding
posts, the
enlarger
-lens
light
to the other.

would
serve
just
as
well,
since
the
lamps
are
in parallel,
but the extra pair is
handy
if still another

perhaps to illuminate a
