Cab/chicken coop

I'd hit it. $50 is about break- even in wood and labor for the general size (if it's built well). Some clean up, Duratex, and a bit of hardware; some common stock gitfiddle drivers like MODs, and I could flip it for profit.... 50 buck CL ads for cabs always catch my eye. Some boxes you can't build for less than that. Some sell for less than the speakers that are in them would cost you. More so with guitar stuff. Vintagy 412's and 212 combos sometimes have twice the value in drivers than the whole unit sells for. I'm not chicken.

it honestly looks to be worth $50, I'd play it to a show with a new grill. At the very least, it's worth its money in wood, and could very well make a decent chicken coop - the top hole would be great for going in and taking eggs, I would imagine. Also, I'm of the opinion that chickens make great urban pets in numbers that aren't ridiculous. Sure, you'd need a back yard for them, as opposed to dogs which can go on walks, but if you've got the space I'd recommend them.
