Fostex FE126E Speakers – Our first big project
As promised, here’s the photos and technical details about our first “big” project. All the straight cuts were done with a table saw with an Incra Miter 1000SE. That miter tool has given us amazingly smooth and accurate cuts out of a tablesaw we used to think was pretty rough. The circular cuts were all done with the mill, at with an accuracy of a few hundredths of an inch according to Brian’s digital caliper. The plans for the speaker and technical details about the Fostex drivers are available here. The first three photos are the base for some speaker stands we have yet to assemble. The idea is to perfectly fit some PVC piping in those holes, then fill them with sand. The speakers and stand are both made of Baltic Birch, the speakers in 1/2 and the stand in 3/4. Many thanks to Justin for taking the photos.
