THE HOWLER
« on: December 27, 2025, 04:17:06 pm »
Hey guys,
My Christmas project....
"THE HOWLER" PCB
6AQ5 valves are getting hard to find, so I rebuilt a project to accommodate 6BM8s.
I'm liking the timber look cabinets for home use and found some 6" pine tongue and groove pine flooring to construct cabinets from.

Hey guys,
Had some leftover offcuts of pine flooring
And chopped them up into 600 long pieces

Made a jig to clamp them together

A couple of wedges to hold them together

Then the process of putting them together



Round overs done and holes filled
Ready for sanding...
The boards are $14/m new, so about $60/ combo cab
