Speaker time

[Wardsweb]

Saw dust fills the air. I am building a pair of horn speakers. Who would have thunk?

The drivers.

Looks like a variation of the Klipsch Cornwall.

Intrigued!

Cool. Are you following an existing design, or... ?

Mocked up with my version new internal bracing.

I am building pretty close to a Klipsch factory Cornwall III. The drivers are all stock Klipsch. The cabinets have a slight variation but fit stock grills. The finish is what will set them apart from a factory pair. Looking now for some exotic veneer.

Weird, my reply to Pauly was placed in my earlier post showing the bracing.

You've done some beautiful things with veneer on your previous projects, can't wait to see the new ones!

I've got some spare "Altec Grey" paint if you want that truly unique finish!

Did that on the backs of my A7's, the rest was done in walnut. This time I'm thinking something with words like figured, waterfall, burl, pommele, rotary cut, etc...

Seriously Jealous!

One cabinet done. Time to assemble the second one.

 

[Wardsweb]

I am going with a waterfall bubinga veneer.

 

[Botch]

Does that particular grain "undulate", or change shading as your viewing angle changes? The curly maple on the back of my fiddle does that, neat effect.

1st coat of paint on. Now to let it dry, sand and shoot the final coat.
