The Amp Garage

Another thing the plans call for 1/2 roundover.But the pics I can find of the originals look like 3/8 to me

Weren't some cabs originally mitered and some had the rabbet fitting into a dado with mitered trim on the front.Please tell me if im wrong. I can make the ones with the trim on the front just about as easy.I just think it looks cheesey. I think I will scrap the miter lock idea and just miter the cor...

Hey buddy I don't half ass anything When it comes to woodworking.

Who in the hell said anything about cutting corners?

I guess if somebody wants to spend $900 14 coats of oil is no problem

glad to see his name getting all this exposure.He seems like a real good dude.

Pretty soon kids are gonna look at Z's like some of us lusted after marshall's when we were young.

The exotic woods used 12 - 14 coats of tungoil dried and wet sanded between coats. The Cherry cabs some used simi gloss poly, others used tungoil, a few may have ever used gun oil. Again 12-14 coats dried and wet sanding between each coat. poly was applied with a sprayer. Why so many coats? Are you...

Well i was gonna start building some head cabs tonite.I got about as far as selecting some boards. My planer is having some issues now. :evil: I may take some boards to my buddies shop and knock them down.Else i'll have to wait till i can get my planer fixed. Guess its better to break down now than ...

They 25k pot should have a 253 on it.
The 250k should have a 254.

So the 25k should have some numbers similar this RV4N253C

I usualy just check them with my meter

Thanks for the tips Richie. I'm surprised by the response. I'm already equiped to do all the woodworking and spraying. I usualy have lacquer and poly on hand left over from spraying trim and cabinets. I already have a couple of guys working for me.So I could possibly make 10+ cabs at a time.It would...

Spd1234 It would be no problem to do one unfinished.Probaly knock $50 or so off the price. I can do a high gloss lacquer mirror finish or a hand rubbed finish for extra. Standard finish will be satin. Would folks prefer lacquer or poly finish? Poly will be more durable but also require more work. I ...

Well i Live in one of the poorest parts of the country(per hour).So i don't have to make a lot of money for my time.I get cherry and other woods at a very reasonable cost.I don't know about 15 coats of hand rubbed oil but I can produce a very nice finish with poly or lacquer. It's looking like i wil...

I hope this is ok to ask about here.Sure not trying to step on anyones toes. I build cabinets and do carpentry for a living.I was planning on building myself a trainwreck style cab.I could build several more pretty easily I think.I have some really nice Cherry wood and alot of other species.Oak,Waln...

was that a song

Very nice.

I'd say spend the money on copyrighting and marketing.

Come up with a fancy name.Make up a bunch of BS about how much better your amp will sound and use hand selected rubber, zircon encrusted screws and so on.,

Then you could sell them for $10 a piece.

Have you tried "gasp" calling them.I've only ordered a couple things from them but they were very friendly and helpful.
