I'm also building the head cabinet (complete) and 2x12 speaker cab to match (still in progress). So far the most difficult part of the whole project has been getting the tweed to lay down properly over the compound curve along the top front cutout in the head cabinet. A little paint thinner on the pre-laquered tweed I was using finally did the trick. I've wired up the power supplies and filter boards, switched it on and measured the voltages, so far so good!
Here are some photo's - any feed back, especially on the power supply photo, is always appreciated.

There are two things I would do differently, one is the grain on the middle piece in the front, the other is the orientation of the grain on the left side as your looking at the front. I chose to make it run the same direction as the right side, but if you look at the top edges along the left and right, the grain runs in a different direction. It looked OK until I put the top piece on, then I realized my mistake, but too late. The other thing I really debated was the hard corners, tweed amps don't have those, but my corner work was not quite perfect and I chose to cover it up the easy way. Also, I do gig and transport to practice every week and I wanted a little extra protection.
