Like the Brown series, the Tweed Bassman sweet range is only 30-34ish, leave the 38-40 for the Silverface stuff. If I could get the cathodes to around 32,I would call it a day.

Thanks TM and thanks for your input along the way!
Well, I ended up with just a few minutes to toss up a mic and play a bit. This is just moving through the 5 positions on the Sunburst Strat from bridge to neck and a little shuffle in Amin. I have more that I'll post later in the week.
You have the handle centered front-back on the wood at the cut-out, not centered on the width of the cab. I don't know, it might balance and carry better the way you have it.
There is often a third chassis mounting screw through the top of the cab. It engages an L-bracket which is attached to the upper-outside PT bolt. I think it would be a good idea to add that feature to better support the chassis.

Martin got it. It hangs funny when I pick it up. Luckily, I'm not a gigging musician so I won't have to move it very often.

I agree. It was surprising to me that the weight of the chassis is supported by only 2 screws with the tramsformers and choke pulling against them. They weren't supplied with the kit but I added some flat washers to mine just to reinforce the mounting slots in the chassis.
