OK so you cut the arcs with a router. How did the router pivot on the pins? Did you use one of these as well?

It seems like there was a lot of set up for each piece. So you ran an inside radius and an outside radius (two pivot points), an end stop for each and then routed straight to the back end?

Hope we're not stealing trade secrets here but the lamination process is a very interesting option for speaker building that I'd like to try (without investing in CNC)

Anyway, thanks for your teachings. I'm going to try this (just as soon as Santa Cruz stops burning!)

Nah, Just used a piece of rod, with a hole at one end, through the router guide holes

Post ideas on the web, anyone can use them unless you specifically state copyright. Even then, its not much. So feel free to implement any rendition of the idea/method, I always like to see other people's way of doing ideas.

How do you think Magico came up with their laminated speaker! :devilr: by watching what us DIY guys do :D

Download and Unzip the following for some other ways of doing things.

ps, I'm pretty sure it was Keith Kidder that first coined the "Translam" name, but the method has been around for ages.
