Thanks alancohen for your input.
I have some updates :
1. I have now finished the first front panel for my DIY Altec 612 cabs . It has been made with a bevel with a 45 degree angle.
I have taken into account that the bolt circle that is 15 inches on the 604E speakers will not interfere with the outer line of the bevel circle .
see picture and drawing attached for more info :
2. Since I now building these cabs with birch plywood instead of MDF I will not paint them since the wood itself is so nice, something that can not be said about MDF. I am planning on building a pair of front grilles for these speakers : I will build these grilles out of extra material I have from the standard birch plywood plates : the different layers in the plywood that I will build the front grill-frame out of will be visible when seeing the cabs from the side.
3. I?ve done some modifications on the drawings in my previous post . I wanted the wood structure to go all around the cabinet. So I needed to scale down the width of the cabs with 4 mm. See new cutoutplan from standard plates below :
4. I also have now NOT included the slot to fit for the front panel to the cabinet since I did not have enough building material . I barely managed to get this to work.... My front plate has to be fastened to the rest of the cabinet with lamello biscuits.
