Something isn't right, ~2V offset. Build 2. Discovered in build 1 that what I thought was a 5kΩ multiturn was in fact a 2k. 270Ω resistor in the LM317 adjust circuit is now cool and adjusts. The 337 tracks but is off by about -2V so when I set the +V to 15V, -V is about -17V. Swapped the 741 out and still the same. Next will be to swap the 337 if no one has a better idea. I did check the 10k resistors and they match and the 4.7k is on spec. I did leave off the output protection diodes and output transient spike tantalum capacitors on this second build.
LM317 on right.
