Not only done but it looks and sounds great. The filter cap cans that were provided by another member kind of put the icing on the cake for me. I love originality and they give it that look.

A special thanks to all who contributed their time and thoughts to get me through this one.

Thanks guys! Hunk of wood is next. Like to make sure I have a good working amp before I start carving the cabinet out of a tree.
