Help links for restoring tolex & grille cloth?

[LastManOnEarth]

Can anyone supply a good link or two for (re)covering a cabinet? I've got a restoration project in the works which will be the first time dealing with replacing tolex. It doesn't appear to be too complex but I'd rather go into it forearmed with some degree of knowledge.

Lastman,

I've had great success using the tolex tutorial from Casey4S. Here's a pic of the enclosure I built and tolexed, using his guide. The amp chassis was in the original sawed off enclosure! for sale in a pawn shop. Except for the baffle board being too short, the tolex job was a success. the amp is now basically a vibrolux w/2 -10s. The transformer requires a 2 Ohm load, but the 4 Ohm load has been working fine for the last 1.5 years. As a suggestion, start at one of the bottom back corners, so in case you goof, it won't be as noticeable. hth
