Bit of a genius if he turned out that kit with those tools!

Fair play to him..... And his results look fantastic. But the question that popped into the mind was *why*.... That's the kind of thing that cnc is made for and you usually get a better more consistent result.

That's not taking away from his amazing skills!

Yes I wondered too why someone would challenge their patience in this way when there's CNC
Maybe money issues or access to such machinery?

I used the exact same tools to build my speakers and everything else!
The 5 minutes job became 5 hours job, but that's a hobby and I find the joy in that building process!

Another thing is the cost, because, I had no idea if this would be another of my projects to end up on scrap .....AGAIN!

It's nice to see some interest here on these build ups. :)

The guy who made them /there are still work in progress on another two speaker at the moment/ is a countryman of mine. I follow his work as well.
