I'm going to guess what Todd refers to as the secret sauce is probably the germanium diodes. The design called for a Russian D9E, but I used 1N34's as the original creator eventually revealed were used in the original. Here's some background on silicon vs germanium diodes

Next, I laid out the enclosure in Sketchup.

Here's a few more quick shots of it before mailing it off:
