Give John Lyons at Basic Audio a call. he might have some suggestions.
If you're going to do one, would you do a second for me? PM me if you'd like.

I just PM him, He said that it was a wood enclosure, but suggested epoxy to bind tweed to metal
If I could only get my hands on some tweed without having to buy 20 feet of it ...
anyways thanks Jacob for the reference
