Rawcabs!
I couldn't find any decent wood to build a cab for my 5E3 clone, but found a guy on the bay who sold me a cab for a reasonable price. I was amazed when it came in, not a knot in it! (I covered it with tolex anyway).

Re: Rawcabs!
"Rawcabs" is on eBay... Reggie is the good dude who runs it.
For anybody wondering...

Here is one of his cabs I bought for an Octal 5E3 a couple of months ago...

Re: Rawcabs!
His wood is beautiful!
I didn't get Reggie from Refugio, yeah I think I'll buy more of his stuff!
(Nice build also)!

I had Reggie make me 2 cherry TW head cabs last fall, nice cabs.
He is a pleasure to work with.

Beautiful tolex work, Bill. Love the two-tone vibe!

Re: Rawcabs!
no blackout of the baffle board, or does the speaker only show out with the camera flash?

Re: Rawcabs!
I left the baffle unpainted to give the grill a lighter shade. Thought it would make a better contrast to the brown sides/back.

Bill,
Looks good and nice work. Is that a JBL I see there? How do you like it with the 5E3 circuit?

Re: Rawcabs!
I haven't been able to play it in cathode bias yet, (I need to get the bias a little lower), but I did play it Saturdady for several hours in fixed bias, and it sounds great! I let a couple of other guitar players play through it, and one, (who plays a rectoverb), commented how "full" it sounded.
