Hey everyone. I'm not usually interested in buliding things myself, nor playing around with technology and things like that.
But a coffee can and a garage sale changed that.
Last year I came upon the "fostex fe127" drivers at a garage sale. I didnt know what they were, but they cost 15 dollars for a pair so I went for it. After mounting them inside a coffe can, I was somewhat satisfied with their sound. But after stumbling upon the site "planet 10", I now see their potential as great speakers.
Since im a total noob, I'll be attempting to construct the "floorstander mkII", which I've heard to be one of the easiest to build and are great souding.
I havent stepped into the lumber section of home depot in many years, so im very unsure of the lumber sizes and whatnot.
It is for this reason I ask. For those of you who have experience with this particular model and speaker building in general, What woods and lumber sizes should I look for in order to maximize the most out of each piece?
Thank you in advance.
Just for your information, my skill with wood on the other hand is very good, due to having mandatory woodshop for 2 years in high school.
