That might the awhile at my current pace, but I can at least post some pictures of the baffles when I get them. I'm also still figuring out what I want to use for the side panels and the woofer box as well.

One of my favorites is Cocobolo. Like this: Sold: Salk SoundScape 10s In High Gloss Mexican Cocobolo

don't know how that would look with zebrawood. Here is an interesting approach with the zebrawood: Greg's SoundScape 8's in dyed zebrawood

gab
Cocobolo is very nice and I'd like to use it eventually, but I think it'll end up being too red for the Zebrawood. I probably won't go that dark/grey with the stain, but I've seen those before and thought they looked cool.

A friend of mine, who picked up the machined baffles for me, sent me some pictures of them and the solid Zebrawood looks terrific. Once I put the roudovers on it, sand it, and figure out what stain I'm using, they should look pretty darn good (I hope).

I've been rolling the idea of solid Bamboo side panels around, but I need to see the baffles in person before I'll know if that will work or not.

Oh fine, maybe one. The lumber is still pretty raw, no sanding or anything was done it it and I still need to put some round overs on it.

Bamboo Ply. Expensive, but currently what I'm thinking of mating with the Zebra wood baffles.

I met that John K. dude!
Tell him you know me to not have it affect the price one bit. :D
Sweet! He seems like a really nice guy, in my limited interaction with him. I wouldn't say that. I'm sure if I mentioned you he'd double or maybe even triple the price :eek:

Don't sell yourself short :D
Well, he also mentioned it was the worst blind date he ever had.:D

I'm like 4 moves since starting these.......at least. I'm not sure where anything is and I definitely definitely have no idea where the build plans are or the miniDSP files are lol.
