--- Quote from: Wienerdog on February 12, 2004, 10:55:40 pm --- Let me save you some time and just tell you to stop looking at Poplar. If you were at Lowes pricing tools, you don't have the tools needed to build a cab from solid Poplar. At a minimum, you would need a joiner and planer, about six 4 foot bar clamps, and some experience doing a glue up (a six foot board is not easy). I give you credit for picking the right wood though, Poplar is the right choice for a solid wood that you are going to paint. It's just not practical unless can glue up panels in your sleep. --- End quote --- Most diy sheds over here sell pre laminated sheets of poplar... |

--- Quote from: Stingray on February 12, 2004, 02:38:00 pm ---Being that I'm no carpenter by any means, but feel comfortable doing metal work, I seriously considered building a cab entirely out of sheet metal with a tubing frame. After I realised that I'd need a forklift to move it, I changed my mind and just bought an old cab and converted it. -S --- End quote --- Sheet metal with ABS/PVC frame, yo. |

I do apologize for the necro :dunno. I didn't even notice the date until that little warning came up... but who reads those things anyway. I do now. As for holding up, I had a stargate refurb that I reglued and stapled in 2004 that help up great until I moved to Germany in 2008 and the movers didn't crate it right. It was in pieces. Aparantly those things don't like being dropped. |
