Random Cornwall items

Recommended Posts

When I refurb'd my Cornwall Is, I made extra bases and grille blanks. The grilles are Masonite (1/8") and currently unpainted. The bases are 3/4" ply, 2 1/2" high, 23 1/2" wide, and 14" deep (based on my original Cornwall I base) with corners connected via pocket screws. I am in the process of veneering one base in walnut for me and could easily veneer the second pair. I don't do this for a business and it's a shame to just toss parts...so I 'm only looking for actual shipping. Msg me if interested.

I don't know if I have enough veneer to do the grilles. I thought about it while taking the pics.

**edited to say that I actually do have just enough. Not sure well veneer would work on a thin piece like Masonite. I would worry about flexing weakening the bond**

I never even thought about it until I saw your pictures of naked grills... I think that might be a good idea for some, veneered grill covers.

 

Masonite does flex, it might need to be of something more sturdy.

After receiving the grille blanks and discovering two more pairs of older grilles at home (in this ridiculous apparently un-inventoried) warehouse of speaker parts, Ryan was kind enough to forego reimbursement of shipping charges with the caveat that I pay it forward. I promise you that some Klipsch fan will soon be recipient of a bonus here at the House of Klipsch. Perhaps someone starting out with some Cornwalls (which were my first ever Klipsch purchase).  Thanks Ryan!
