Hi Guys,

I didn't know if it was alright to post ebay links here or not, but as I've seen others I'm going to go ahead and do it.

I have a couple of mahogany and maple amp chassis which I made on the Ebay auction block right now. They have 8 x 10 plates and will work out well for a pair of monoblocks or a pre and phono.

Here's the links

Nice job on the cases

Dovetailing the corners makes life lots easier. When I did the DRDs I 45'ed the corners along with routing the top rail to recess the top plate. It made construction tons more time consuming.

I think I like the simple yet cool looks of the two toned dovetail. I may try that with some cherry I've got stockpiled.

Thanks,

Yep from a visual standpoint mitered corners look so much simplier, but there such a pain in the @#$ to get tight, gap free joints and a square corner.

The dovetails are a lot of extra setup work but assembly is a breeze.
