The sides and top will be veneered in Khaya wood (from the mahogany family I think but not quite as red as many of that family are). Front and rear will be a complementary paint finish that I haven't quite decided upon yet.
That sounds tasty! Can't wait to see 'em!
Might be a few weeks yet, my back can play up and put me on bed rest at a moments notice so I don't plan too far ahead.
I'll take pictures as I go and pop them on here.
Any thoughts on quality of capacitors and resistors for the crossover Wayne?

There are plenty of good capacitor brands to choose from. I prefer poly film caps, and there are good ones from various manufacturers. We stock Erse, Solen and Jantzen as well as Auricaps, and I really like each of those.
There aren't as many brands for 10 watt resistors, but we stock both Xircom and Mills and I like 'em both.
The hundred watter used in the Zobel is available from Ohmite and Uxcell. We stock the Uxcell part, which is a good quality resistor and easy to mount. The Ohmite resistor is excellent as well.
