    Yes it's Jeff in his Huddersfield's workshop. In 3 hours he did the finish on the prepared wood cabinet. No waste as he has pushed his craftsmanship to perfection!

    There's Experience for you. Respect ! Should have him refurb my old " Voice of the World " logo cab from ? 1970 / 71. Those vintage cabs look good. But the oldies had nuts holding the speakers on. Screwing straight in save time now I guess.Great Great Cabs !!!

    Done some cabinets myself it's increadibly physical work. You still have to think of your health. Use mask when doing sanding job and painting stuff. Wood dust and paint are not good for your lungs. Earprotection is a must with a tablesaw.

    Well, thanks for the comments on the background music. Note that Jeff Lewis didn't want to be heard speaking, I had to convince him to accept that this video material was made public. Not an easy task. As for the music, it has already been changed once, now it has some music from the free library of KZread. You are welcome to send me music (or make suggestions) to put as background to the video, with the necessary copy rights and I will gladly give you satisfaction to change it!

    Geez. If I had that workshop and all those tools, I could built a robot that would build me a speaker cab. I wanna see somebody build one with a rock and some duct tape!

    Walnut has a higher density then ply, but in any case solid wood is not recommended. Use MDF veneered or particle boards. Solid wood has an inherent resonance that will wreck the flat frequency response of any traditional cone-type speaker, and therefore should not be used.

    He's a good craftsman, but he scares the sh** out of me on the table saw! I'm a cabinetmaker/carpenter who sustained a fairly serious injury (almost cut my hand off at the wrist). Mine was a freak accident.....but I can see his day coming up soon. You're never too experienced to re-learn safety.

    RudeCommentsAreFun Absolutely right. New woodworkers take notice: the saw blade should never be that much higher than the thickness of the stock being cut, and you should NEVER finish a rip by pulling the board from behind the blade. (If the board binds, it will pull your hand into the blade.). Perfect example of how not to do it
