Well, waking her up did me no good... I should have stayed in the garage..
Anyways, The false floor is near complete, Just need to trace my old back piece onto some birch, and Fab.
ABS sheet, and linear actuator should be in this week..... I'm getting close.
No subs until Dec or Jan, though:shakes head: Once I figure the mount for the actuator, its time to tear down, Re-wire, and do some finish work, and final assembly.

Dang man, you're almost done with yours and I haven't even begun to start the purchase the materials for mine yet...

Just taking advantage of some rare free time....
All woodwork is 100% complete, did my tear down today, and wrapped a few pieces in some suede I picked up. When my actuator arrives I'll have to put it all back in and get it operational, and complete tear down again before I can start all the finish details.
A few minor glitches I ran into today that will make me re-think my plan as far as finishes go, but nothing major..
I'll probably dream about the solutions tonight, and get them done after work tomorrow, if time allows.

Nice man! That is looking awesome. I guess you won't be showcasing the Zapcos anymore. That sucks about the long wait on those subs too. Although, that serves as a testament to how good SI is, aside from your SI coffin. I'm getting more and more curious about them, especially for the price...

The subs and the Zapcos will be the only thing visible once I get the actuator in and functioning to raise the floor.
I have it in hand, but work is killing me this week...
I installed the switch last night, and pre-wired it, customized the actuator brackets and painted them, and got my ABS finished on the bottom side of my "lid" for lack of a better word.
Hopefully this weekend will open up some free time, and I'll get my leather done, and start re-installing everything.
If the gods are really smiling, I'll get it all 100%, but that's a stretch.

Good day today, got her 90% complete. Needs a few finishing touches, as well as my second sub (December or January)
But at least I got tunes again.
Ran a few sweep tones tonight, just for giggles.... Variable smoothing applied

Pics tomorrow for those interested if the weather is decent.
