Title: Help! Need Sluckeys Lightning build info
Post by: daveyajd on November 05, 2019, 05:54:13 pm

I am in a build of a Matchless Lightning clone and I’ve been using Ceriatone and Sluckeys layouts as guides. I see Sluckeys website has changed and I can’t locate his layouts and info. Is there anyway someone could post them here?

DAMN SLUCKEY IS A SAVAGE! Whole damn website changed over and all that info gone.

Sluckey: Can I PM this person my copy of the PDF?

PMs won't allow attachments but you can attach the file to a message in this thread. Or share it any other way you wish. That stuff was always offered freely and meant to be shared.

If you can't wait just use the wayback machine.

Thanks for sharing that 2deaf.. travel day for work. Vegas is a hell of a town.

Got a gut shot best I can. The PDF 2deaf posted is the same one I had.

Thankfully, some time ago I downloaded most of Sluckey's schematics/layouts. But I really enjoy the website. One of the best for clarity of methods, etc. I had built or rebuilt 50+ amps by the time I saw Sluckey's site, but I ended up learning great stuff. The Visio sketches are impeccable. The Smokey project is a hoot. The wayback machine will get you some, but not all of it.
So Sluckey, is it coming back? I feel like the kid in the old Pepsi ad; say it ain't so Mean Joe.
Expensive to keep a site going - Go Fund Me? I'm in.
