One day at a time. :thumbleft: An FP3 mask is good enough for asbestos so should be good enough for wood dust. Perhaps the fit isn't quite a seal? I use one of these and can test the seal - never had any probl...

Re: TG "The Loudspeaker" Build (Sort of)

Looking good, can't wait to see what a 300L cabinet actually looks like. I feel the router pain! I have a big 1/2" Triton in a router table but for free hand stuff I'm still using the half price special from Aldi or Lidl that cost £12.50 in the end. It's not great and I keep thinking I should g...

Nice Steve. Does aluminium work-harden at all or can it be bent "in one"?

Re: On My Bench.

Recliner no worky, very serious indeed. Excellent interim solution Dave :thumbright: .

I think you've let yerself go a bit there though, not as neat cutting as previously. It's to be expected though when faced with such an emergency.

Re: Audiojumble 03/03/24

I might be interested in a couple of C3g, a quad even. Then the C3g phono stage I've been working on for the last 18 years on and off might last as long in service...

Re: On My Bench.

Hey, it wasn't obvious on my phone! Honest! And my attention was drawn to Dave's tidy manicure which appeared to me to be pointing at the two soldered joints!

Re: TG "The Loudspeaker" Build (Sort of)

Lots of interesting stuff here that would probably stand their own thread. I'd be particularly interested in the whole remote control and preamp setup.

Re: On My Bench.

Ah yes, I see it now.

What/where are the signs here Dave? The solder joints by your finger look okay. I'd never have seen this. Perhaps I need to looking on a big screen not a phone.
