I proclaim brisket to be a breakfast meat! But please keep in mind that I also proclaim penis as a breakfast meat.

I was in College.

Today's project... 50" X 19" Birch butcher block, stained Gray. This will be the top of my new A/V rack, which is your typical wire shelving, but epoxy coated Black.

.73 cubic feet. w /2" x 6" port behind the tweeter.

Acoustic guitar is wonderful. Haven't really rocked out yet, still loving Alison Krauss and Adele ATM. Hey, I'm gay, what'd you expect?

Done! These are not just your standard two ways. Instead, Marc has paired basically a full range driver and a super tweeter, then customized a crossover to take best advantage of that pairing. These drivers have to stretch their legs before I can really assess them, but so far I'm impressed. They're bigger than I had originally thought I'd build them, but still, make a pretty good nearfield monitor. Bass is far better than I expected. Eventually, they will darken to match the Parasound case. The window will speed that process up.

Holy fuck!!! I'm just so thankful they don't serve that on a biscuit! Otherwise, the entire West Coast would sink into the sea!

What's wrong with spoogey?

I had a pair of these... And a 50" Panny Plasma in a small class C motorhome. This will be a walk in the park. We got one crossover finished, will most likely finish the other Tuesday eve. I'll glue on the Cherry baffles tonight, then it's just a matter of soldering on a few spade lugs.

Damn Doug! I can't express how beautiful those are! Just wow!

Milo was nice enough to finish the finish on my baffles. They look fantastic. Milo really is a handy guy!

Hmmm, I thought straight guys wrapped their "natural materials" in "plastic" all the time. Thanks! I was trying to make them look high end. Sonus Faber and Chario were my inspiration. Good thing Otis doesn't have much going on Saturday. We'll make 'em spiffy!

^ Here and ready for action Sir!

Arm-R-Seal is a urethane modified Tung oil. You get the beauty of Tung oil and the durability of Varithane. Plus it's a wipe on finish, so easy as pie.

Milo and I got the speaker boxes mostly complete today. Made some round holes and some rectangular panels. Tweeter holes are in the Cherry baffles only, as they're not deep enough to need holes in the MDF panel too. Woofer holes and port tube holes in back. Cherry baffles got milled and drilled as well. And the first coat of Arm-R-Seal. The fluting is strictly aesthetics.

Speaker boxes now clad in Black laminate, because we had enough left over from the router table project... Making a solid Cherry 3/4" thick baffle to glue on top of MDF baffles...

Happy Birthday, Mike!
