MOTM

Thanks to all of you who have shared your experience on this matter!!

Another question, if I may---if working with plywood, is "fancy joinery" out
of the question? Meaning, biscuits, lock-miter edges, ... I assume
dovetailing would be a big "no" for the looks if nothing else.

All of my fancy plans were for solid wood and I don't know if it would
translate to ply. If I had a planer & jointer I would probably continue as
is, breadboard style, but right now I'm fence sitting. I was *really* into
the idea of using hardwood and mitering my edges with a router & lock-miter
bit for an invisible, classy, strong glue joint... I don't know if plywood
precludes that.

I do understand that ply tends to warp less than solid wood, but would it
really be SO much of a problem in Moog-like cabinets? By comparison, I have
an 18-ish-year-old Korg CX3 organ that I *assume* is real hardwood (sure
dents & scratches like it), and I don't notice any warpage. On the other
hand, it's probably 8" deep, not 14".  Warping, hmmm... one of the 'analog
realities' of this part of the process, eh? <g> We're putting vactrols in
our filters... maybe the cases should be warped? Just kidding... that's a
physicality I can live without!

Thanks again in advance to all of you!!
