Simon,
I'm intrigued by the changes you made to the cutting plan...any chances of sharing or putting that up on your site????
thanks

Klykx,
The drawings are a few years old now, and I did them on an old computer so I'm not sure if I still have them. I'll have a look for them and post a pdf on my website if I can find them.

I have just prepared a cutting plan to reduce the 3 sheets 1800x900 on the Fostex site to 2, 2400 x1200 for Baltic Ply. If you would like a copy I will try and post it on here. You will need 4 sheets for a pair of speakers.
Good man. Please do. Be useful, that.
206ES-R in 208ESigma box? Should go in, no problem there, but why would you want to? The recommended 206ES-R box is a very good design, based, as far as I can see, on the Nagaoka D-57 / D-58. It's got plenty of length, and a decent mouth size. Looks good too. I'd stick with that for the ES-R.

Hopefully the 2 sheets should be attachments in this and the next post. The Scanner seemed to re-size them to mammoth propotions and I have had to shrink them, so I hope that they are clear. If anyone has any problems please let me know.
The only alteration I made (spotted the night before cutting was due to take place !) is that piece 8 was the wrong dimensions and could not be cut from sheet 2. I moved it to above piece 2 on sheet 1 (in the corner)
Sorry about the scruffy plan, but it was obviously good enough for my local timber yard as they never contacted me. Cutting took 3 hours.

I am unable to attach the plans. I scanned them in on the lowest setting, but I am being told that they are too big to be attached. If I reduce them any more thye will be useless. Any ideas ?
One of the problems with PDF sizes is colour information. It might turn out to be easier if you scan and convert to .JPG.
cheers.

and to make sure that you are scanning with the Black and White only option (300 dpi should be fine)
Ususally drawings compresses much better as GIFs. JPG is better with photos. Try adjusting contrast/brightness/levels so the white areas gets a uniform bright white.
Greyscale with a slightly clipped white gives a nice apperance and compresses really well.

Thanks for all your replies. I had tried everything but Photobucket. I registered with them ages ago, but never used it. I have uploaded the plans, but when I try to attach them it tells me the file name is invalid. I created a shortcut to desktop to attach it and it gave me the link name and I cannot see why it does not work. *" *!! is the only polite thing I can find to say at present.
