Building a DI box from scratch (part 3)

Finally, its assembled and working. The chassis took 2 days to build - finished it yesterday. Painted it and wired everything up today. Plugged in my bass and took a listen. It actually sounded really round and smooth. I wasn't expecting it to sound like that, but I'm happy it does. The only problem is the output is a bit quiet. The reason is because there aren't enough turns on the secondary coil in the transformer. I plan to rewind the secondary coil tomorrow with a lot more turns to increase the output volume. More to come. Here's the pics from today:
