    Bringing 828 cabs up to snuff...

    So now that I'm going to be home from work for a few weeks I can't resist catching up on a few projects.

    Since my 828 cabs are relentlessly in the way in my garage I thought I'd at least put them on wheels. I got some 2" rubber-wheeled casters from HD and now at least they're mobile.

    While I was at it I couldn't resist getting off the backs for the first time since I bought them. I expected a nightmare inside, but they're pretty clean. Here's a few shots:

    I really don't want to gum them up with spray insulation. I have plenty of Ultra denim (last pic) that I can use to further insulate, but where should I add bracing to stiffen her up a bit?

    And I guess the first order of business is to build a port board for the bottoms. 6" round? 4" deep?

    Oh yeah, the business end:

    And even the backs are not too bad. I think I'll keep the battle scars rather than paint them.
