I can probably print a lid. Not sure if I could easily put a hinge on it. Not 100% certain what this needs TBH. My knowledge of this guitar and the battery compartment is zilch. If it's just a static lid with four screw holes, then given accurate dimensions, including the radius of the rounded corners, that's pretty simple. It appears that what the OP wants is a lid with a border that screws down and a hinged lid inside of that that is latchable using a finger. That's more difficult. However I could be completely wrong and normally am... A simple lid that screws down is dead simple and could be designed and printed in a few hours. Anything with a hinge needs careful thought. The more info the better

I was looking at pulling the trigger on a Yamaha HS7 but will now read this first. Thanks

Thank for this. I'll get one ordered.

@Richard R Thats such a generous offer. I'll certainly swap my two, almost but not quite feral, cats who are at this point in time doing their best to decimate the mice, rat, and bird population of the village. The cats have no fear of anything and so rabbits and pheasants are also their targets. Its such a joy when they try to bring in a butchered and half eaten rabbit through the cat flap. I have a strong stomach, but not that strong. The only reason there are no foxes is that every fox, as far as I know, has emigrated to the local towns and cities as it's easy food there and because my two ninja cats aren't there. The cats also smell really badly and love dribbling on you at 04:30 in the morning if they can get in the bedroom and the dog hasn't noticed them. The dog classes the bedroom as his turf and tries to chase them out. They also throw up anywhere they can, and their litter tray and the 100,000 acres of Yorkshire Dales literally outside the door,is ignored if they can find a corner of the house to poop in. The vet bills are enormous as well. So I accept your offer to swap cats. I'll be there in around 15 mins. Thanks Rob

Looks good. Keep us informed

These are when I do my design work in Fusion 360. I've developed the ability to track the call mentally in the background and to anticipate when I need to speak.

Those two look very purrty (sounds of six fingered banjo playing in the background). You must bring them to the bass bash. Do you need a van yet? Rov

A boring MS Teams call....

@fretmeister How was the Tonex with the Yamaha HS7 please? I have a Tonex 3 button version and was looking for something smallish for home use. Don't need massive volume at all, but wanted something small that I can use the Tonex with both bass and guitar. Thanks Rob

I thought I knew which thread you were referring to and after looking for it, I realise I have no idea which thread you mean. There's quite a lot of threads that this could be, any pointers welcomed. Thanks Rob

@JPJ Thanks for the reply. I have read the the 1x12 design thread, but for some reason I missed the bit about it being pretty much an FRFR design, my bad My knowledge of suitable PA amps to pair with the 1x12 design is slightly less than my knowledge of kitten surgery, I dabble as does everyone, but I'm no vet I'll ask in that thread. I did note that somebody had put a small amp with the speaker to make a combo, my intention is to make this simple (once complete) and reduce leads, power cables and what not. Thanks Rob

Hi, I can see a number of excellent build diaries for cabinets, but haven't seen anything about building a FRFR speaker/cabinet. Given the wide number of relatively cheap class D amps that are around, I would have thought that the more technically minded would have turned their minds to this. My reasons for looking to a FRFR speaker are: 1. I have limited space as t'other half doesn't want the house "cluttered with your crap". 2. I play bass and guitar (equally badly) and would prefer fewer things. 3. I have a Tonex pedal board AND a Mod Dwarf pedal board and would like a decent FRFR speaker to use with them, especially the ToneX. 4. I don't want really want a (supposedly) 2000W Headrush 212 FRFR speaker or a Spark Cab or a Katana Boss or Spark 40 and not use the modelling element. 5. I fancy doing something along with building guitars. <-- This may be the actual reason. Any links or suggestions welcomed please. Thanks Rob

I'll send you the bill 😊

I've just spat my drink over my keyboard at that 😊

Bob Dylan at the Brixton Academy, probably late 90s, supported by Elvis Costello. I idolised Dylan growing up. Never meet your heroes 😩 Elvis Costello was excellent BTW

That's not fair.... Not quite in the same league as Fermats 'I have a truly marvellous demonstration of this proposition which this margin is too narrow to contain.' but not too far off... Rpb

Well deserved as well 👏👏👏

Played rugby on Hackney Marshes for 10 years and all round Essex. I moved to just off Railton Road in 1988, small garden flat in Milton Road, used to head up and down the Walworth Road to E&C and beyond. Those were the days of £50K flats and a decent curry in Tooting for £4. Rob

@Reggaebass are you sarf east London? I recall Walworth Road and you for some reason. I'll book a minibus...

I look forward to my invitation to your man-shed. I'll bring tea and biscuits

My suggestion would be "we were crap, the set list is pants". If you have two gigs and one rehearsal left, what do you have to lose. Of course the way you say it is important, but it needs to be said.

Still better then me 😩

Ah grasshopper, Confucius he say "Think of it as the first step on the path to a well worn relic... " Rob

Thats a great video

Absolutely true.
