[QUOTE="alternativeroute, post: 53943, member: 1115"] I can second that... I wanted to build this project ( http://www.avforums.co.za/index.php/topic,3972.0.html ) with bamboo board untill I realised the cost... +-R4500 for three sheets... One day. Bamboo board really finishes well with some funky routing and then a good thick clearcoat. I went over to JimGore's (AKA Ian - http://www.avforums.co.za/index.php?action=profile;u=3 ) place and he has a set built with maple and finished with 2K clearcoat. Excellent finish! You might miss some of the tactile feel (and smell) of an oil finish but the grain looks super through the clearcoat. Has anyone tried Kiaat for a speaker build? @Gerhard What drivers are those?
