Re: Chassis Update
Hi Funk, I will probably be interested also. I'd like a drawing also if you have one.

OK Fellas,
I'm meeting with the sheet metal guy tomorrow, thanks to the pictures Ayan provided this run will be super accurate! I'll keep you all posted as to availability. How many of you will want head cabs to go with them?

Re: Chassis Update
they are Knock-off Dumbles, Black on black with thin white piping.
I could package up a chasis, head cab, and a set of punched boards as kind of a kit pretty reasonably. depending on the final price quote on the chassis that is. I'm thinking $350-$400 for the whole shebang.
And if enough folks are interested I can buy custom wound trannies in bulk at a substantial savings. (Choke, PT, OT, Relay supply).
I'll keep ya all posted!

Re: Chassis Update
Did you try a carbide-toothed blade? Garolite ain't exactly soft on tools! That's what I use in a cheapie job site table saw, and it looks fine.ampdoc1 wrote:Funk,
I'd prefer no logo myself. I build most amps for friends who wanna put something personal on there!
I'm glad to hear you're gonna do the preamp board(s). I have had terrible luck trying to cut my boards. The garolite always flakes and splits. Tried a new blade with increased teeth,..no difference.

A little late for me on Iron and Boards. I suspect just that chassis for now, maybe two, depending on availability.Funkalicousgroove wrote:they are Knock-off Dumbles, Black on black with thin white piping.

I would probably be interested in "the whole shebang". Not sure about trannies, but let us know what you have access to there.
Cheers,
Craig

Re: Chassis Update
These new Chassis will be pre-drilled for Trannies and boards. Of course you can add all the holes you like, but This way you can get a ready to go setup. Lemme know.

Re: Chassis Update
Hi Funk
How far off are we? I'm at a place where I need to get things mounted and going. I know this is a courtesy service you are providing and there ain't much money in it for you, so I'm in no position to say hurry up but I'm very close to decision time depending on your schedule.
When do you think?
