is that the sound of blood in-rushing to an unspecified area of chuffage?

let's quit while we're ahead... ( I almost said "nip this one in the bud right now ")
Wow those are gorgeous.
Look, they are so awesome that the broke the stands and they had to repair them with duct tape. 😀
Have there been some rough dims of those posted anywhere? I just curious as to the external measurements.
How come there's no American English equivalent of "Phhhhhwwwwwooooooaaaaarrrr!"?

Ah, the pictures never work for me so I am usually forced to ask for a reasonable accomodation -- tactile is the preferred modality.
Glad to hear that they're also getting raves in the aesthetics department too -- though with Chris on the job it was pretty much a given.
They're going to look great on the custom solid maple stands I already had made for them.
Chris and Dave, just try to keep the droolers away this weekend -- or at least at a safe distance 🙂.
Hey, now there's a question -- what do they weigh?

would that be "schwing" ? (no jokes about stretching it)

I can put them on the scales tonight, but it will be prior to Dave's infamous packing, which could add another pound or 3.
Chris,
That's what I'm looking for anyway -- the weight I'll have to pick up to set them on the stands, etc.

Just took a quick look for some of the Macassar veneer. Ahem, not cheap. US$550.00 for an Architectural grade 4 X 8. 1/42" thick sheet.
I better stick with Formica or cupboard self stick covering sheets!
I wonder if its too early to ask Santa for a Christmas gift?

this one wasn't quite so much (trade pricing on special product and all)
My wife just happened by and I showed her the picture Dave posted. "WOW! Now *those* are gorgeous!" "Are those really the ones we're getting???"
I think she was impressed 🙂.
Always nice when you can get the WAF stamp of approval in advance. Some surprises haven't gone over all that well.

As they're still at home, the only method I have to weigh them is an old bathroom scale - the absolute accuracy of which is suspect, but in any case they tally in at approx 28lbs.
Chris,
Thanks -- and just about what I suspected - somewhere between 25 and 30 pounds.
Got an email from Bud last night and I'm really excited to hear what else he has in mind.
What a great project this has been!

> For the record i used Martin spreadsheet and it gave me a zobel network of 8R and 0.71uF (I used 0.68) and a 1.5mH and 6.8R in parallel on the hot.<
Hello Fran,
I am currently building a pair of fonken's and was wondering how to connect the parts of the correction network you described.
Thanks for all the great info.
