The "making of" of my 9V/12V Powersupply:

I've made a Powersupply for the gear in my rack that required an adapter.
I needed a lot of those (see list below) and as you can see it was kind of messy in the back of that rack:

This is the gear that gets power from this Ps::

AKG wireless system, 12V DC 300 mA 2 units
Rocktron Hush, 9 V AC 1A
T.A.A.S true bypass and A/B switch, 9V
T.A.A.S A/B/AB switch, 9V (embedded in the AKG systems, to select receiver)
Vents, 12 x total: 12V 750mA
 

First I had to get the adapters out of their housings...

First try, with a 250 ton press:

Result:

Not really a success... though the adapter is out of it's housing, it is not working anymore :-(

Second try, a 5 ton fork lifter:

Result:

Utter failure.... depressing, housing almost intact...

I ended up doing it the old way, brute force. Soldering Iron, hammer, baseball bat and  whatever was within my reach with as result:

:-)

On this cnc punching machine I made the front and back panel (with lots of help from "Metal Theo"):

Result:

Bended a stainless steel sheet:

All parts ready for assembling:

Front and back panel welded:

End result:

Powersupply in my "Wall of deaf":
