I've used pine for a wing that is 26u and it seems to be fine. Also have
used it to build a odd case for Blacet stuff. It's 3/4 inch thick. The
only thing I don't like about it is that it is very soft wood. These were
my preliminary cases till I'm able to spend some real time on building a
case nice case. Then it will probably be 3/4 inch hard maple. Next I'm
planning on taking my Serge out of the SKB and mounting it in a Oak plywood
case. I guess building the cases are have the fun?
NAAAA!
Patiently awaiting my 101 and my 2 300! (Which will make a total of 5 osc
going) Kinda goes with the territory of living in OcOnOmOwOc Wisconsin. I
guess it's just a must to have 5 O's

Can anyone suggest a type of wood to use for my cabinet? It's
getting aroung the time that I need to build this thing so I'll be
looking for the supplies that I need before too long.

I seem to remember someone mentioning that a wood that is too dense
(?) has a tendency to warp. That scares me! I'd hate to invest all
the effort to build the cabinet only to find that it warps a year
later.

Times like this make me wish I would have snuck out of my high
school electronics shop class and into woodshop class a few
times... : )

Patiently waiting on a 101 and 440 (yay!)
