Day 6 - Morning
@Tung: Thanks for the links! We're screwing it down as the speaker has 8 screw holes, on to the baffle plate. Thanks for the spacer idea, we're using scrap pine cut to size for the spacers and attaching velcro or upholstery tabs to them to secure the grille.
Sanding down the baffle, speaker hole already cut out. There's a story here, He had a fancy schmancy tool with a jig. We spent an hour yesterday figuring it out, but when he tried to use it, it was all wobbly. Went back to the old fashioned jigsaw to cut the hole.
Painted the internal ports with chalkboard paint.
Routing the countersink for the jackplate.
Finished countersink showing the jack plate (white). Incidentally, the jackplate was part of a 6" pvc pipe that he flattened with a heatgun between two heated tiles. Couldn't find an appropriate jackplate locally. Wondering if the plate will collect enough static electricity to add hum?
