Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Nice grain matching. This is obviously the most difficult and time consuming area to veneer on a La Scala. Still fun though! Looking very nice!

Innocent_George Posted May 3, 2017 Author Share Posted May 3, 2017 Ugh so we ran out of veneer doing the dog house.... One inside wall is short by 2 inches while doing a vertical run . So I had to order more while he started on the other speaker. Here is the newest veneer from the factory. Hoping it works out and matches up well. If not I think I might just have him do both outside walls for the doghouse in this. Make it even on both sides. Still haven't decided on what fabric I'm gonna use for the grill cloth either. At least I got my tweeters ordered and new glass for my McIntosh P.S. if anyone doesn't know it already @MookieStl and @Matthews are some great people and I owe them both a case of beer! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure Matthews doesn't drink, so I will take his case! Seriously, it is not hard to find some real good dudes (a few dudettes) around here willing to lend a hand. I am glad to be a small part of your project as it looks like it is going to turn out to be a killer set of speakers. Just hoist one up for me when you first fires these babies up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khornukopia Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 That woodgrain is too pretty to hide behind some grill cloth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brett from https://www.facebook.com/2ndTimeAroundRestorations/ He is a great guy located out in Pittsburgh. Makes it easy enough for me to get back and forth once the time comes to that. Edit: He is a user on the Klipsch Forums, not very active though. 22 hours ago, Khornukopia said: That woodgrain is too pretty to hide behind some grill cloth. We are only going to the cutout with veneer have to hide it somehow! I guess ill be waiting till I see them in person on how they look. I do know my fiance wants top grills at the least. Time will tell and ill keep everyone updated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innocent_George Posted May 8, 2017 Author Share Posted May 8, 2017 Second sheet came in. Outside walls of the doghouse are from the other sheet. I think it turned out ok! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richieb Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I would agree. They turned out ""OK"". Ya think --!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MookieStl Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 If you don't like they way they are turning out, you can always Duratex over that unsightly wood grain. I can save you some trouble and swap my Duratex LS's for these homely boxes. Just a thought, I'm a giver. Let me know. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MookieStl Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Thanks Richie, I thought it was generous too. In many cases the duratex speakers are equally desired. In the dark, in the rain, as a plant stand, etc. Plus in my defense, not that I need to defend the offer, my duratex LS's ain't all that bad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
