Building a Solid pine wood, finger jointed guitar amplifier cabinet.

Building a solid pine wood, finger jointed guitar amplifier for my Fender pro Jr.
Done the same way Leo Fender did back in 1946.
There is Nothing like the Warm sound of a pine wood cabinet!

Step 1 Measuring the four sections to be cut

The Fender pro jr. cabinet measures 14 1/2" H x 15 1/4" W x 8 3/4" D
I wanted the wood grain to match throughout the cabinet,
After purchasing a piece of select pine wood 1" thick 10" wide and 8' in length,
I carefully marked the 4 sections to be cut at 14.5" then 15.25" then 14.5" then 15.25"
Measure Twice CUT Once! Make sure to always were proper safety glasses and
read and understand the proper use of your power tools!
I used my radial arm saw to cut the sections.

This is very nice, and complete enough for someone to follow and duplicate.

One minor point: it looks like you uploaded all your photos at the beginning (certainly much easier :-). Unfortunately, that has the side effect of also attaching all of those pictures to your introduction. You may want to remove the "in process" pictures from that step (it won't affect where they are in the rest of the I'ble), leaving only the beautiful finish product.

If you're not familiar with the (slightly weird) markup I'bles uses, you could replace your all caps with either italics, putting two apostrophes before and after the text, like this:

        ''like this''

or with bold face, using three apostrophes, like this:

        '''like this'''
