Beading channels

[MJCustom]

Hey there,
I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on how to cut beading channels on cabs?

Cheers.

I'm not sure what you want.

Do you mean banding?

If you need to cut a groove or channel its dpne with a router, or if you are old school, with a hand plane.

In either case you clamp a piece of wood as a guide for the edge of the tool.

Sweet,
That makes sense. I'm pretty new to cab/amp finishing so trying to get a good handle on the different techniques.

For interest's sake I have attached a photo of my first refurb.

If anyone has some good how-to sites it would be appreciated.

Thanks!

It works well to cut a 1/8" deep groove with a full kerf table saw blade. Or if the cabinet is large, use a router with an 1/8" straight bit, 1/8" deep

I wouldn't recommend doing it if you are doing a recover but it is entirely possible, I've done it many times. Any stick from glue residue is not safe for a table saw,
so make sure surface is clean and smooth!
