Here
is a collection of pictures showing some of the steps involved in the building
of a Vintone Cab.
Throughout
the construction process, full attention is given to even the smallest of
details.
Like the location of handles at the center of gravity so that your cab
"hangs straight" when you carry it.
And added internal bracing on
larger cabs to keep joined corners stronger and more rigid.
To building all
cabs from one piece of wood so that the grain of the wood continues right
through the dovetails.
Cutting
the Dovetail joints on a 16" single width Mahogany board.
