ODS head

[Stephen1966]

I think you can take into account the wood radius of 10 mm plus the thickness of tolex, this will be 11 mm. But I have never seen real headshells or cabinets with such facets. Always 1/2

So a 3/8" bit with a 1/16" allowed for the tolex. That makes sense. Now I look at the photos, I think that could be right... These are the photos of #201 I used to draw up the cab.

Thanks Aurora, if you have any insights would love to hear them.

...The original Fender corners are really designed for the thickness of panels thicker than standard ones 3/4 (19мм)

But on Dumble amplifiers, other corners have always been used, like this - https://www.banzaimusic.com/Steel-corner-CS-2-WA.html

Hey alkuz, I just got the new corners from Tube Town tt-hwset25 https://www.tube-town.net/ttstore/set-c ... crews.html. These are a better fit with a 19mm wrapover for 1/2" radiused edges and corners. I'll take some photos when I install them later this evening.

The new corners are better. Next time, I might go for a slightly thicker tolex. These new corners have something like a 19mm wrapover and they are okay. I think the Fender corners have a thicker plating but these are a slightly thinner material I think and so it's six of one and half-dozen of the other, but they will offer more than adequate protection.
