Amp project part two

No photos today I am afraid - there is not really much worth photographing today.

A parcel arrived from Germany today. I ordered my Tolex & Grill Cloth on Tuesday evening, after most places were shut, which made it effectively a wednesday order, which arrived today. That is quite good IMO.

I have also tried out my dowelling jig, and it seems to work quite well. I just need to watch the depth of holes I drill. There's not much spare wood if I want half a 30mm dowel in 18mm wood!

I have also checked the wood - I think I have all the wood I need. That will be 18mm for the main carcass, 12mm for the front and 9mm for the baffle, not that there will be much of that. What little of a back there is will be either 9 or 6mm.

I have also tested the saw board. I made brief mention of it in the previous entry, but did not really say what it was. There is detail of what one is at http://www.rochesterwoodworkers.org/JunkDrawer/Sawboard.pdf, but what it basically does is make it easy to use the circular saw to cut big stuff quickly and accurately. Draw a line where I want the cut. Clamp the sawboard to the line and cut. It is important to note that the saw board is made with the saw it is to be used with!

The 40T blade does make a significantly tidier cut than the 24T!

I'll be using a round over bit in the router to shape the corners on the cab, the cordless drill for the dowels, either the router or the jigsaw for the circle in the baffle.

Now, how do I get the angle grinder involved?
