    Very cool... when we made the first one for Project May we tried to do it with a three axis CNC router... didn't work too well due to the required tool extension and physical limitations of the machine. With a 5 axis machine you could even machine them out of solid wood and produce some that are nice looking like JohnW's.

    Keep us posted as the system comes together.

    A little update:

    I got the air coils for the eq filter from Denmark yesterday ( 28 pieces )and i bought 7 battery holders too for the 9 volts battery. I hope the capacitors and inductors also comes.

    To mount the drivers on the horns i have also bought 28 special "nuts" with 6 mm thread inside and a wood thread outside.

    In coming weekend iīm going to make some fill and painting on the horns.

    After some weeks with a lot of work on my job, i got some time this weekend to my speaker project. A friend of mine ( Patrik ) have helped me with the saw. I have maked the steel plates to mount the drivers on and painting the horns.
    Tomorrow evening we will put the boxes together with glue and small wood pieces( i donīt know the english word for it, bickies ?), no screw.

    For a month ago i bought some veener from an old man and he said i should take all of that he had in his storage, so i got 1000m2 veener for 300 usd . There is over 200m2 walnut veener to my speakers and he had 180 walnut batten to for 35 usd .

    My 2435 hpl drivers are still in the us but i hope iīll get them to christmas.

    Some pictures:

    I missed this thread. :dont-know You should have directed me to it in August so I would have known what was up!

    I assume Zilch got those LE14H-3's for you. That's pretty incredible actually, especially five of them. Very good!

    Thumbs up

    Nice work so far. Congratulations!

    I was afraid the project had died, but now it's back to life!

    Progress

    Hi Mats

    It's wonderful to see that you are making progress.

    It won't be long before I send you a SolidWorks drawing of the horn of which my avatar is a cross-section.
