Anyone know a custom woodworker who can make a case for a vintage receiver?


It's impossible to find an original one so I'd love to find someone who can make me a case for my Scott 222C.

perhaps consider constructing by your own kind self . perhaps also via Ancient Japanese Woodworking Technology which utilizes no glue nails etc. only hand tools ..perhaps also consider a fanciful / artistic / imaginative design as a proud work of art . many such highly skilled can be found on YouTube for examples of what can be achieved .  

Do not get a case like that shipped. It is the easiest thing to crush. This is basic cabinetmaking. A first month apprentice would be able to master this. Go to a local cabinetmaker. Drive there with the unit you want covered. They will measure it and make one on the spot. Tell them you will finish it at home(ie stain/ varnish/laquer),

Do not go to a franchise wookdworking firm. Find a local independent. It’ll save you shipping plus the hassle when it gets destroyed as it inevitably would. Saves the franchise added cost. More than likely a better quality end result. Ask for mitered corners and take along a phone or laptop with photos of cases you like the look of.

@oberoniaomnia:

I took your suggestion and looked on Etsy for custom wood cabinets for my Pioneer TX-9500II tuner and found just what I was looking for, a cabinet maker who would construct a custom cabinet in real American walnut. It was expensive, more than the tuner cost!  When it arrives, I’ll finally post my system and you’ll see why I sprung for it. Thanks for the heads up 🙏!
