WTB: 4x Ikea BLANDA bowls, 8" or 12"

Spasticteapot · 10th March 2010, 10:12 PM

I'm looking for four wooden Ikea bowls for a speaker project. Does anyone have any in an 8" or 12" size?

Eh... IKEA has them...

I can swing by IKEA and pick up a pair for you, but then you'd have to pay shipping plus Washington State sales tax. It'd be less expensive for you to order them on-line.

AFAIK, you can't buy them online, which is a major nuisance.

Oh... You're right. I just blatantly assumed that of course such a small product would be available on-line.

Target has some similar bowls, and does sell them on line.

Where? I haven't seen any on their website.

I said similar, not identical. I've been collecting some of their rubber wood bowls for use in a quasi-spherical (kinda egg-shaped) speaker. The ones I have sport a fairly large flat bottom, so I can crowd a 4" speaker and a small tweeter in the same space. The edges require some belt sander work to prepare the mating surfaces. The ones I'm looking at will fit one of the Tang Band 4" titanium full ranges with an SB Acoustics tweeter. I have some larger bowls that will fit the Tang Band 6.5" wide range woofer, I was planning to add a tweeter on an outrigger.
