Cabinet all together with speaker. I need to buy the Feet and Handle and think about ordering more parts for completing the Chassis. The Chassis would be a good starting place :lol: to mount my Turret Board in. Need PT, OT also. All the high $$ stuff left to get.

Nice job! I really like that speaker. Have one in my Matchless and Bassman cab. Rich smooth tone, almost like a vintage alnico magnet speaker.

Be interesting to read your comments on how the thing sounds, with the 5E3 installed.

:)

That is the real thing made in England V30! Not Chinese. I put it in because I had it and hadn't decided to get anything else. Guess I will try it for a while.

Does it say "MADE IN THE UK" anywhere on the speaker?

Indeed I have read it on one of my Celestians but, the speaker in here is China, my mistake. I thought the only Chinese ones were my Avatar labeled pre brake in Hellatones!

The only Celestion that I'm certain is still manufactured in the UK is the G12M which is unambiguously marked as "MADE IN ENGLAND".

A fun sidetrack with some of the Cabinet scraps and a couple of 2x4 odds and ends. Used the hole saw plugs as wheels. These will go to my Grandsons. Put the old tube in to keep amp related! :lol: :roll:

Just picked up a nice shed about 8 x 10 all wired for electric. Leveled and plugged into the RV service box that was out back. Tiled floor. My new saw and new belt sander along with my older tools (Power miter and router, wire welder, etc are now set up inside from weather). It has two windows to ventilate and a 4' wide door. Nice little workshop!!:) Need to build a ramp now.

Nice. With a ramp and some shop lights you should be all set.

In my 6 x 12 man cave I hung a set of overhead racks from the roof trusses to hold rolls of Tolex and grill cloth in large mailing tubes. It keeps them out of harm's way and prevents them from attracting dirt, sanding dust, etc.

Rawk on!

Already put up two fluorescent lights. It is nice and bright so my old eyes can see!
