William,
I've made templets for the BMR, let me know if you need one.
I'll copy mine and send it to you.
At least the Tectonic tabs are 1/2" so a $10, 1/2", top bearing flush bit will work nicely.
[they make 3/8" top bearing flush, but they don't look like they will last that long]
How to make odd speaker shapes - old school? I bolted a metal frame speaker face down and copied with a bottom bit router.
Step two, use a router-collar to go back to the finished size you need. I found it that you can fabricate (custom) bottom router plates pretty fast; probably what they did back in the day, before you could just buy them (collar kits).
Not sure this ploy would on a plastic BMR
I don't have a 3D printer, but that might work also.

ODougbo,
That is very generous of you. Thanks very much. Let me know what you need from me, and I will be happy to reimburse you for any cost, materials, work, and shipping.

Nice build! Doesn't look like your first time cutting wood haha. I am in the process of building my kit, your notes were helpful. Here is a picture of the crossovers if anyone is curious, was trying to find one to compare them to mine but no luck on the internet. Before i start soldering maybe someone could tell me if they notice any critical errors lol.
(if your wondering what the holes in the mdf are about, i was going to use the solderless connectors then decided against it.

so the crossover diagram calls for a 2.7uf and a 22uf OR a 25uf. the kit came with the 25uf.
WoodBurner,
Good write up, thanks for sharing.
Your speakers look very nice too, congratulations on your successful build!
