Subject: Prototyping Wood Cabinetry

From: "Kevin Loper" <kloper@...>

Well, it is Friday night, and workshop time is finally here.
I ordered some flat rails from Larry and thought I would
begin prototyping a cabinet design. I'm using large pieces
of cardboard to model the cabinet, with actual JPEGs from
the Synthesis Technology web site pasted into Visio to
represent the front panel. I've printed these off and pasted
them onto an 8.75" X 21" piece of cardboard.
Now, the ultimate cabinet is Moe's Synth Of Doom,
but my module complement is laughable
at this point, so I'm settling on doing something like
a single tier version of the bottom Moog 55 cabinet.
Normally I don't prototype something this simple but I want
to try out a full-size version of a devicethat is going to be with me
for a long time. If anyone knows of a website that features JPEGs
of wood grains (especially walnut) please post them to the list.
Thanks,
Kevin
