I posted something similar to what your asking a few pages ago. Aside from those shots I don't have anything significantly progressed to warrant an update at the moment.

I'm working on them as much as my free time will allow so will update once I have something half interesting to show.

Junkies.. Always needing a quick fix.

Hey chaps

Got a fair amount done over the weekend. Went out at 9 this morning and have just cleaned up at nearly 10pm, I'm knackered. On the woodworking side, one speaker is so very nearly completed except for a missing tweeter baffle. The glue isn't quite set on some parts so I'll have to wait until tomorrow to get some shots of that.

The other speaker is steadily catching up. I did one of the mid/bass baffles and progressed one of the mid/bass enclosures a good amount as well as cutting lots of bitumen, lead, foam and BAF to size ready to just slot in come the time.

I seem to have run out of MDF, I did make a few mistakes but thought the offcuts would make up for it. I think the slight cabinet change is where the MDF has gone. I loathe running of stuff halfway through a job.

I'm guessing another month tops for all woodworking to be finished, so that's 3 months taken leaving another 3 until the DIY meet. The spraying is as involved and every bit as time consuming as the woodwork so its going to be close. The paint might still be wet come the meet!

So close now:

Lol, gotta love the 'unveiling curtain'

Salas · 26th March 2007, 10:34 PM

He, he, looks great. And the curtain shot a surprise. What camera you use?

Honestly you guys are giving him too much credit. Look at all the stuff that is not DIY in that picture. I mean really. Its like you aren't even trying Shin!

/I wasn't sure about the curtains.

I have to laugh at that. DIY radiator and chairs etc. Hmm. They do look excellent though, I have to say. It takes a lot of work, and a certain type of person, to be prepared to actually go through with something so complex, I hope they end up sounding, as good as they will end up looking.
