Model 19 cab - fabrication cost est.?

[GM]

No, I'm saying that the M19's simple collection of boxes and frames with a few baffle holes are what manufacturers that do kitchen, etc. cabinets, window frames or similar are optimized for.

WRT Atlanta, this was once a major manufacturing town, but due to labor/tax rates going through the 'roof' in recent decades, most began moving away/been bought out beginning in the '90s. There was a good one up on the outskirts of Lawrenceville N.E of us though, but that was ages ago too, so with the build up of that area I assume they've moved on also. There use to be some up around Gainesville where DSL is also.

Speaking of which, someone needs to check with them to see who does their cabs as they are high quality constructed with 13? lam BB ply. For example: Danley DTS-10 "Super Spud" DIY kit - AVS Forum

That said, not too long ago I got a flyer announcing a new business opening near me featuring custom made wood based (PB?) business furniture, but it came along just as the economy collapsed, so not surprised when I got a phone 'disconnected' message just now.

Doing a search, I found one near me that might actually do it locally based on its address, but all I got was 'ringing', not even an answering machine, so not sure what that means. I've made a note to check them out the next time I'm over that way though.

Thanks for your kind words, GM.

You're welcome!

Agreed and have periodically recommended having a local DIYer do the work, but AFAIK it's always fallen on 'deaf ears' even though it would cost less, so don't bother anymore.

Not the ones that use to be around here WRT to custom cabs, they just followed plans/instructions 'to the letter' to ensure no undue liability when it was time to collect, so being careful of what you asked for was the rule.

Right, DIYing isn't so much about saving money as it is getting what you want/need for your app.
