I followed the TGP Mitchell Foam Doughnut thread to the end. Anyway he can tell it better than I. http://www.tgpwebzine.com/?page_id=424 That doughnut sounds like an interesting way of doing things, though I'm not that keen on the idea of gluing bits of foam inside the cab to the grill cloth. It mi...

Back again, chaps, with more information ! I'm starting to get the feeling he's getting a bit fed up with me asking so many questions about his simple DIY project, so I promised this would be the last time I bothered him about it. There was a sale on three layer hardwood plywood at the local hardwar...

Thanks for all your help ! I knew there would be a lot more to a good sounding cab than just building a box with two holes, but not that it would be this much. I'm learning a lot here, thanks to you. I spoke with the owner/builder again and asked more about how he built it. He really doesn't underst...

Thanks again, John, very interesting. I never really looked into porting before as I'm not that big a fan of open back cabs. Might be worth some further investigation.

I just assumed it because of the closed back and couldn't see the two ports in the front baffle through the grill cloth. He told me he had it made to the specs ...

Hello chaps, Awfully sorry to bother you with a question that's probably very silly to you experienced cab designers and builders. Just the other day, I played my Super Lead on a really nice sounding (closed back) cab. I would like to get one myself, if it didn't have such a bizarre shape. Not very ...

Thank you very much, Mark.
I will let you know when (of should I say if) I get to actually build something.

Hello chaps! New here and my first post. :oops: I'm thinking about getting an Expression from Nik, but I'd rather see some nicely figured bits of exotic wood around it instead of tolexed plywood. Would any of you know if Nik's chassis fits in a cab made according to the PDF flies from this thread: T...
