Hi Lee,

Being a rack-panel-screw-the-visual-¿sthetics-sound-is-the-product amp crafter dealing with a specific market, I am constantly amazed at the physical beauty, usually using wood, some of you guys impart to your chassis.

I look forward to seeing your completed project, and congratulate you for what you've done thus far.

Lee, another beautiful job. Glad to see another amp project come together for you. By the way, you were my first customer five years ago. Many thanks!

Beautiful work Lee !

Are you going to make it a convertible for 6A3 / 6B4G ?

I notice the dual set of socket holes ?

Thank you for the nice comments, this was a long complicated build.

Tom, yes I had planned to make it convertible, but not sure now, may make things too complicate for my daughter. Will machine a plate to cover the two holes.

Another photo including the unfinished ZigmaHornet speakers with Merrill DCA4 drivers. The cost of material and drivers is around $100.00, the best $100 I have ever spent in audio. These are absolutely wonderful sounding speakers especially considering they are only 4.5". The veneer is going to cost 2 to 3 times the price of the ply and drivers.

Gorgeous woodwork Lee!

I love the woodworking part as much as the listening part of this hobby. I see and recognize the spalted Maple, but is the rest Mahogany or a Padauk? It does not look like Rosewood to me, but certain species and variations throw me sometimes.

Anyway, Rant Yellow_Light_Colorz_PDT_02

Good Work! Please Keep us posted.

Blair, you are correct in your recognization of the spalted Maple, the other is Redheart, a wonderful wood to work with.
