Hello, sorry I did a search and could not find much.
maybe someone could tell what size dovetail router bit is used?
any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks & kind regards.
 
Do you have the other details on thickness, dimensions and method of assembly? Your thread can be the resource for others .

My friend helped build the Black Limba combo cabinet for my MarkIIA. We just measured the plywood/tolex original and winged it. Love it, but the following items are not to original specs as far as I can tell.

> planed the wood to 3/4” like fine furniture. Believe factory is thinner
> Used Cherry plywood for the speaker baffle, also thicker than factory
> Dadoed the baffle to the cabinet, factory appears cleated
> we used half-blind dovetails, not evenly spaced. Just because it looked nice to us.
> I could not find one board that would yield the top, sides and bottom. I got the top and sides from one board. The bottom and back panel were from another board, looks like from the same log.

Post photos of your finished cab!
 
Dovetail size is 1 half inch nominal. Top and bottom boards are cut full width, side boards are cut full height minus the thickness of the board, which is nominally 3/4".
