Re: scap wood
Excellent Idea. I was thinking of aluminum but your idea is worth copying!
Thanks, TR

Re: scap wood
Nice, did you just use bendable plywood to wrap around the back?

Re: scrap wood
Thanks all. I used veneer, not bending ply. The ribs in the pic were removed individually as I applied the veneer to the side plates, then cut to size to fit in between the side plates and applied back on top of the veneer. I used hot glue as my adhesive.

Re: scrap wood
You have a very good idea there. You may consider becoming a paying member and making a few of those to sell here. And maybe consider doing a few variations. Some people put their radios in there.
