WTB Looking for a pair of Lowther PM6a Low-Ken cabinets by planet10

Wanted to buy
I am looking for a completed pair of Dave's Low-Ken cabinets for the 15-ohm silver voice coil Lowther PM6a as detailed here. Prefer to find someone in the midwest USA within reasonable driving distance of western Illinois. Have contacted a remote speaker maker about this in the past, but shipping alone was going to run $500-1000 which seemed outrageous.

I am fine with financing a build, as it is unlikely that someone has a pair of these cabinets sitting around unused given how niche of a design they are. I don't trust any local cabinet makers to build speakers since i have had poor luck with contracting work of all kinds in my town and would prefer someone who has experience building speakers.
 
Unless he finished them on his own, Bob has not built a pair of Low-Ken for the PM6a... He started a build of them that I commissioned, but then proceeded to take on several jobs for other *Ken and flat paks after having committed to mine, and eventually strung me along for more than a year before canceling the project on me without even completing one cabinet. Every time I talked to him, I was 'next in line' and he was 'just about to test fit the cabinets' but it never happened. I suppose I could contact him to see if he still has the precut pieces, but my previous experience doesn't inspire me to rush back to him. I was hoping to find someone a bit more local to me in the center of the US.
