A person can never have to many clamps. And just when you think you do, your one short!

Looks Awesome Man!

Yeah I use 8 corner clamps on mine to keep it in place plus two long clamps.

Almost ready to finish, just a little more sanding and it's finish time.

The project for today was the control panel face. With the tiger cherry I decided to put a tiger picture on the face. Also installed carbon PEC pots as in amp 2 Beverly. Like the way they worked, not that the alpha's were not working. Just like the PEC's better.

Need to drill chassis bolt holes, then I can finish it.

Leah has finish. Just need to add tube chart when finish cures.
Betty's cabinet is glued and clamped.

She is the last of the trio.
Then what?? An Express maybe?

Wish I had more of them, Got them about 20 years ago from Betty's owner.
They sure are handy.

yeah they look really classic. Amazing how wooden tools can have such a long service life when they are taken care of.

Well Betty now has the picture frame attached.

Now just have to round edges and sand. Leah has a 2x12 speaker cabinet also. Tiger cherry wood with brown grill cloth. 2 vintage 30 speakers for now. Still have to make picture frame edges on the speaker cabinet yet, and finish. Had to hook it up and hear it before I finish it. Sounds good so far, not sure the final speaker combination yet.

Added back panels to speaker cabinet today and put on the first coat of Tru Oil. I am really happy with the results so far, sounds real solid with the vintage 30's..

Thanks RJ,
I couldn't have done it without you and TAG. You know when this is all done I will have to do an Express. When it is time I will be in touch with you for more great TW parts. Thanks again.

Leah is finished.....

Head and 2x12 are done. This one is mine and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. Now just have to work on Betty, head cabinet is almost done and chassis just needs some major wiring. That should be no problem as I have had some practice now.

Betty's chassis is under way

Had to work on some repairs that has kept me from working on her, but she is on the bench now.
