I am within a few weeks of starting my Theater 4 Pi speaker project. This will be my first attempt at speaker building. Needless to say, I am still a little unsure of what I need.
A friend on mine is going to cut the MDF for me. Other than that, I am on my own. Here's a list of what I plan to buy. Any help and/or suggestions would be most welcome:(2) Theater 4 Pi speaker kits
Porter-Cable 690 router
Carbite router bit set
Jasper Circle Jig model 200
3/4" MDF
1"x 2" bracing (Dumb question: What's the best way to attach the bracing to the MDF?)
Saw horses
Elmers wood glue
Square
Various clamps
R-13 fiberglass insulation (Another dumb question: What's the best way to attach the insulation to the MDF?)
NBL Wood-Backed cherry Veneer Sheets (Should I put polyurethane over the veneer?)
Hide glue for attaching the veneer
Double edge veneer trimmer
Contact Cement Roller Covers
Welborne Labs stranded copper 18 gauge speaker wire for hookup (Any idea how much I will need?)
(2) 18" Economy speaker grills from Parts Express (any other, better looking options for grills?)
(2) Large Grill Clamp Kit from Parts Express
**Do I need screws for cabinet construction? If so, any suggestions?Maybe 5/16" dowels instead?
**Any other items I may have missed, may need or would be helpful in my project?
