I've been wanting a Dobro, but could't justify the expense, since I'm not even in a band, so I want to build a CBG reso. What kind of makeshift resonator comes closest to Dobro tone without buying a "storebought" cone? Any how to video links for reso builds would be appreciated as well.

I have not built one yet, but I see lots of paint can lids, bunt pans cheap aluminum pots, and tuna cans, Anything that is thin and tin I guess, course their is a fav which is the bed pan.
Gotta say it really resos if you can find the pan it looks wild and sounds like nothing else.
Cheers Ron, and Cheers to back porch MOJo.

How is the sound from this one? I have something real similar in the works. I have a stainless pot-lid that has a really nice ring to it. I have never made a resonator before and I want to use this pot-lid. It looks a lot like the hub-cap you have pictured here. If I discover that many have had great results using this type of thing, I will commit to building with it. Right now it's just an idea.
Yeah Tim I'll second the Lowecone nomination, at $25 u cant go wrong..
Mike Lowe can be found here http://www.cigarboxnation.com/profile/OldLowe?xg_source=profiles_fr...
If u really wanna try something else, these suggestions are all real good, coffee tin lids, u dont even need to cut the box, just use it as a riser between saddle and box..
Dont listen to me tho, message the barefoot cajun, hes done probably hundreds of resos and hes a real nice guy. his page is here http://www.cigarboxnation.com/profile/brianromero?xg_source=profile...
