Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

A couple of years ago I made a homemade diy bluetooth speaker similar to this one. Since it has some interesting techniques I decided to rebuild it and show it in a video.

    Great content thanks a lot. I watch even when not in English. Make sure to use a saw blade that leaves a flat bottom when cutting kerfs to bend plywood. Flat Kerf Joinery blade.
