I wonder how this stuff might work. I know guys that buy the black color to make dust/back covers and Ill bet it might work

http://www.perfectfit.com/15347/154532/C...board.html

I had to make a speaker board for an old Truetone that had typical cardboard that ripped in half so I made one out of 1/8" birch ply. I got abit carried away and actually created the cutouts that matched the front grillwork exactly because I was concerned about it not fitting exactly and getting wrinkled fabric. Worked out fine but probably 3 hours wasted.
