Turn them into magnificent 'beat boxes'!  Here in Europe, a 'turd' like that is worth a lot of money...  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 My problem is I have zero shop space. While my wife worked a shift different than mine I would make a mess and clean up before she got home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MookieStl Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 That was the only pair that scared ya! I don't mind bondo and duratex. You go for the beautiful wood stain. Both have their place. As i have said before: 'You do purdy"! I already had beautiful Belles in my living room. These became road warriors. They ride again next weekend. This time with a twist. I'll clue you in if it all works out. @codewritinfool assures me that it will. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgar Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 You know, in the hot-rodding world there is the recently popular trend known as the "rat rod". Should there be a similar trend in loudspeakers, the "turdspeaker"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
