F2 is a perfect partner for the 206. I built one sometime back when I was designing a cab for the FE206E and it proved a good match...I've since given the F2 to Scott but its so good I do borrow it back from time to time....

build details here if you're interested

Though Ed seems to have removed reference to his
Vofo from his main page, his design for the FE206E
was well spoken of, here and other places -

Hi Quadtech,

i had looked at your sachiko build when you started the thread and was very impressed. Do you think i need to use marine ply? is the major advantage that it is void free? Also could you help me a little bit with the build process...this is my first build with this level of complexity so i need all the help i can get.

cheers

The big benefits of ply is that it us stiffer & better damped. A much better material for this aplication. Also won't be affected by the monsoons nearly as much.

Hi Dave,

Here in India, we get two kinds of ply. regular and marine plywood. Marine plywood is about 2x the price...i was planning on using regular plywood and was wondering if i needed to use the marine variety. Also, what did you use to seal the joints quadtech?

Thanks

If one has more plys than the other use it.
