nope, getting frustrated. I need to "extend" the walls up a bit, say 1/4" or so.... how it stands now the driver frame won't fit in the throat Not sure if I'll have to resize the bending birch pieces or not. Also, I'm pretty sure the top is not cut right, I think we're off by a blade kerf on one side. Fortunately, I can cut this with my saw. Unfortunately, I'm not sure I have any pieces left that are big enough. So, yeah. I've decided to wait until later to address this, and start on the second speaker box

Why didn't you tell me before you sold them to me? :)

Campari and Soda 2 oz Campari 4 oz San Pelligrino Ice Yay!

I just made that up, sorry if I implied otherwise It's yummy though!

Irish Liberal 1.5 oz Irish whiskey 0.5 oz Punt e Mes 0.25 oz Amer Picon 2 dashes Reagans orange bitters 1 dash Fees orange bitters Stir!

Half a one of those!

I really like S&C. Try it in an old-fashioned, once you get used to it, it's a very complex rum and goes perfect here.

FTFY

Just finished my second batch of maraschino cherries!

Head-Case Cocktail Dash of each. Shake and garnish with fruit in season.

K1000 and Senns I believe

Nice Shelly, I like that one

Fernet and a big cube of ice.

Hanky Panky (Forgotten) 1.5 oz gin 1.5 oz sweet vermouth 1/4 tsp Fernet branca Stir and garnish with an orange twist.

well, I just sanded it down by hand. Thanks for the offer! I might stil take you up on it. Here's tonite's progress. Everything is a very nice fit.... it's coming together, only one more large turn in the horn, using about 7 pieces ... then I'll start on the front horn. I started by constructing the next piece here: Then I screwed it in to the center support, using three screws. This is the first place I've had a nice perpendicular place to do this. Finally, some top pics to see the compression throat and the first chamber.

Anyone up for one of these? Fanciulli Cocktail 1½ oz bourbon ¾ oz sweet vermouth ¼ oz Fernet-Branca Stir with ice and strain into a stemmed cocktail glass. Or, serve it on the rocks in an Old-Fashioned glass. Though you can use any sweet vermouth, a big, bold vermouth such as Punt e Mes or Vya is the best bet up against Fernet-Branca.

Margaritas!

darn, I found out that these are too wide for me. As are the A5. Any recommendations on an active that's reasonably priced, and less than 5-5/8" wide?

Had to re up on Plymouth and Tequila, and threw in one more for the hat trick:

Ok, it's not bad.. As it warms up and you get towards the bottom in gets really sweet though.

Nice Al! What does Bonal taste like? Any subs?

Wow, I don't think I could handle 1 oz of cassis....

Brandy Cassis After three attempts, I think I finally got this one right. 2 oz Armangac 0.5 oz Creme de Cassis 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice Shake! Couldn't seem to find the Harvard Veritas

Thanks Steve! I found out tonite that that small support that you see in the center of the above picture is about 1mm too thick. The next board doesn't quite fit and it's clear that this support is the issue. Would it be easier to somehow try and sand that support down, or try and cut a 18mm channel in the next piece using my tracksaw? The support has a slight bow to it, so I'd have to cut the channel oversized. Is it possible to neatly plane down the edge of ply? Suggestions?

Made some more progress this weekend. This chamber starts at the back of the speaker, goes down then comes up to the second opening in the top that you can see in the picture. I'm waiting for a few more pieces to be cut, so I"m hoping to start on the second speaker next.
