Simple deflection test for sound-boards?

Post by MarkAndrew1 » Fri Jun 28, 2013 11:01 am

Just wondering if you guys test for deflection and
how simple or complicated do you get? I should note
that I'm in the process of my first build so any info
you can share would be appreciated. I'm using
an ADI top which I understand is known for it's
stiffness.
