I have zero need for the volume levels that a Trainwreck requires to get the best out of though, but I'd love to find/build a super-low wattage version at ~2w for home use. I imagine that'd change things quite a bit though as I've read a lot about the interaction between pre- & power-amps on these.

From previous experience of building a head cab, it looks like it will be a fair weight?
@Kurtis you have definitely built a head cab before! Planning to let the neighbours hear it lots lol
@duotone and @guitargeek62 I do have a attenuator but I do love to play loud also!
Have you seen this demo of the Ceriatone Expression Trainwreck clone?
And this one is a great watch also.

It was a mare to cut and shape too!
Maybe not make much difference right enough with the transformers.
Mine's just for home use anyway and it looks nice.
We also had a go at setting up the jig to cut veneer pieces using off cuts of wood (photo 2)

And a short while a go we made some London Plane tiles at work for an order. Something like 2000 of them.. My job was to oil them all. Talk about variety.

I originally thought I'd bought a piece of walnut so I was aiming for a dark colour cabinet and I have bought a piece of lighter wood for the front panel for a contrast.
Like this really Trainwreck

If you want a wax finish, direct stain first then wax will be more consistent. Don't start with a wax based finish unless you know it is going to work the way you want. It makes it hard to try anything else afterwards.
