Modifying fe127e in the UK

dublin78 · 21st June 2007, 01:06 PM

Hi

I wish to modify/ tweak my FE127E speakers as per Planet 10's methods.

Can anyone in the UK tell me the brand names that best match Dammar and Puzzlecoat?

Dave - I would have purchased yours, but I already own some. Thanks for the info and research tho.

Check out the answers to the thread "I have a problem".

I got Damar varnish from a local Art Shop and Mod Podge from an on-line supplier.

Dublin78. It occurred to me that with the very small amount of Damar varnish I used, I was wondering if you might like a small donation of varnish and ModPodge. I paid £5.00 for the varnish and only used the minutest amount, and only used a very small amount of the ModPodge (£4 something with postage)

I could send them in some small watertight containers, (maybe old film containers) if you would cover the postage ?

It is unlikely that I will ever use the quantity I have left. Dave says you can do 100 cones with 4fl oz size !

Thanks for the info.

Puffin: Yes please, that is a generous offer and I would like to take you up on it. I have tried to send you a PM, but it is not possible. Could you email me via michael(at)arcadianestates(dot)com?

Planet 10: Please could you confirm that puzzlecoat/modgepodge is applied to the entire area of the cone?

Best wishes
